Welcome to this charming country cottage, surrounded by beautiful grounds filled with perennial gardens, flowering trees and delicious raspberry bushes. With Bethlehem Land Trust property bordering the rear and across the road, the setting offers a wonderful sense of peace, privacy and connection to nature. Inside, the home is warm and inviting, with a flexible first-floor bedroom currently enjoyed as a cozy TV room. The walkout lower level features a handsome fieldstone fireplace, laundry area, and highly efficient propane furnace and water heater. Outside, a two-story garage/barn has stood the test of time and, with a little TLC, offers plenty of possibilities. Sip your morning coffee or afternoon tea on the front porch and enjoy the relaxed pace of country living-yet leave the car at home! Stroll into the heart of Bethlehem for the library, local dining, shopping, parks and pickleball, or head to Long Meadow Pond for a day at the town beach. Explore the beautiful Bellamy-Ferriday House and Garden, enjoy seasonal Land Trust concerts, or spend the day at March Farm picking fruit, visiting the farm store and taking in one of its popular hilltop concerts with beautiful sunset views. Bethlehem may be known for its peaceful country character, but there is always something to enjoy-from the beloved Bethlehem Fair and Garlic and Harvest Festival to nearby farms and community events. Major shopping and conveniences are just a short drive away. A special home in a truly special setting.
