Tranquility abounds with this home in the scenic town of Benton! The open-concept layout is spectacular with double sliding doors exiting directly out onto a great porch overlooking the front yard. Two spacious bedrooms and a large bathroom complete the first floor. The basement space holds lots of potential and is begging to be finished. Two wood stoves will help supplement heating costs and the five-acre lot is mostly wooded providing plenty of opportunity for timber harvesting. Apple trees, blueberry and raspberry bushes can be found in the front yard. Surrounding the house are lilacs, hostas, lupuns, and lillies. There is also a chicken coop and shed on the property. Easy access to recreation within walking distance of the Black Mountain Trail, 5 minutes to Long Pond, and about 30 minutes to both Loon and Canaan Mountains. Just a 17-minute drive to Walmart and Cottage Hospital. If you are looking for a private escape do not let this home escape your notice. Sellers have requested no further showings. An offer deadline has been set for Sunday September 3rd at 5pm.
