This picturesque entry adds a special sense of place to the two-acre setting. While the property feels tucked away, Chester's beloved village and Cedar Lake are each approximately three miles away.

For buyers who appreciate New England character but prefer to avoid the expense and disruption of a major renovation, this property offers a compelling combination: a flexible floor plan, inviting indoor and outdoor spaces, substantial system upgrades, and easy access to the best of Chester.
