The woodland charm of Cumberland Hill is the backdrop for this truly special Colonial home. Zoned for mixed use, you can stretch your imagination to create everything from a small business to a secluded telecommuting space. The inclusion of the Burlingame-Noon House on the National Register of Historic Places, without being in a historic district, means you can customize without restrictions. You enter into the welcoming foyer with preserved wide-plank flooring. Many upgrades, including interior/exterior paint, new windows, and new gas boiler, let you relish the character of a post-and-beam-construction period house with the efficiency of modern amenities. The family room's exposed beams and brick-surround fireplace add year-round comfort. Step into the updated kitchen, which preserves its historic allure while pleasing the inner chef with upgraded appliances and crisp shaker cabinetry. An adjacent formal dining room adds delicate light from two sides. The wainscotted living room and convenient half bath with laundry double as a potential in-law suite.
