Here's a period charmer in a wonderful north end neighborhood. Set on a quarter acre corner lot about halfway between St. Catherine's school and Smyth Road School (and McIntyre Ski Area!), you can enjoy the shaded yard or clear some trees and let your inner landscaper go wild! Inside you'll feel connected to Manchester's history with some nice details, like the curving stair banister, the telephone niche in the hallway, the dining room built-ins, and the built-in breakfast bench in the kitchen. The living room is surprisingly large, with a wood fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases as its focal point. The first floor also features a half bath just off the kitchen, and an office with new carpet that could service as a fourth bedroom if you wish. Upstairs the primary bedroom is almost as big as the living room, with three...yes, count 'em, three...closets (including a cedar closet) and jack-and-jill access to the full bathroom. The other two bedrooms up here are reasonably spacious, and all three bedrooms feature hardwood floors. In addition to the schools, you're within easy walking distance to Livingstone Park (stop at Dunkin's on the way?) as well as that Manchester institution, The Puritan Back Room. This home has been in the same family since it was built, and it has been lived in and loved over those decades. If you're looking to put down roots in Manchester and continue bestowing that love on a home, this one is for you! OPEN HOUSES: Sat. 8/1, 1-3pm. Sun, 8/2, 10am-Noon.
