Single Family Residence in Charlestown, RI - $1,150,000

The best of both worlds and perfect for a country compound, mini-farm and/or cultivating flowers, vegetable, fruit, and herb gardens, this 10.34-ac property has a 2.32-ac homestead building site, 6.10-acres under an agricultural use easement and a separate 'utility area'. It offers the ability for expansion by building a new home and converting the existing, charming 18th-century farmhouse/cottage built with rare American chestnut to an accessory structure, which provides flexibility for multi-generational living. The farmhouse has an enclosed courtyard off the main living area and a barn with a newer roof. Beautiful beams are a highlight of the farmhouse, which enjoys wood floors in almost all main living areas, a 1980's/1990's addition of a living room with shiplap paneling and a kitchen with center island, butcher block counters and stainless appliances. Other improvements include updated baths, mini-splits, a Navien heating system and a whole house generator. Private and serene, but just minutes from beautiful Blue Shutters beach and an easy commute to CT, NYC, Providence and Boston, it abuts Burlingame State Park to the north and is located adjacent to and accessed from Forrest Lane, where the most recent home sale was over $1.1M. A unique opportunity to realize your dream.
