THIS OLD HOUSE MAKE-OVER/RESTORATION!

The “Dr. Alvah Godding House” is an 1830’s 2 story home with attached barn, located in the historic district -- a prime location, on the “Old Centre” common, 5 minutes away from downtown, with easy access to all major routes.  Its glorious past earned it a listing in the Historic Registry. 

This antique house has 5 bedrooms, 4 fireplaces and features rare canvas ceilings. The remains of an old beehive oven are still evident, tucked behind one of the walls. This lovely home is an ideal candidate for complete restoration.

The park-like grounds, also in need of restoration, are a bird-lovers paradise!  The property consists of 2+ acres of flower gardens and antique varieties of apple trees.  It backs up to 15 acres of open space conservation land. 

This home needs a lot of TLC but what a showplace it will be when it is finished! It has excellent potential as a “gentlemen's farm” complete with attached barn for horses and other small animals. The barn has 2 stalls with plenty of room for more.  Neighborhood has many back roads and riding trails.  Other possible uses include turning it into a lovely bed & breakfast, an antiques and crafts business, or professional offices.
