Property Description

A rare opportunity on the hill in Turners Falls! Custom-built in 1964 by a renowned local builder as his own residence, this one-owner brick Ranch is set back from the road on just under two acres of beautifully landscaped, park-like grounds. Its south-facing orientation fills the home with natural light, enhancing the comfortable one-level living spaces. An inviting foyer welcomes you into the spacious living room featuring a large picture window, leading to a cozy den with a raised brick fireplace, vaulted ceiling, and skylight. Glass doors open to a screened patio overlooking the grounds. The kitchen and dining area, highlighted by a bay window, lead into a large family room with a vaulted ceiling and wood stove. An attached two-car garage adds convenience. Designed for entertaining, the lower level features a finished recreation room with a bar area and fireplace, plus a half bath, laundry area, and plenty of space for storage or a workshop. Outside, mature trees and open lawns create a picturesque landscape, while a groomed path winds through the woods to a viewing platform overlooking the Connecticut River. There's also a small basketball court with a single hoop and a separate one-car garage with an adjoining enclosed room, which also offers space for storage, hobbies, or a workshop. With its quality construction, distinctive design, important recent improvements, and beautiful surroundings, this well-loved property offers a rare combination of character, comfort, and opportunity!
