18-20 Bear Hill Rd, Merrimac, MA 01860 - Essex County

Circa 1780 ~ Welcome to Bittersweet Farm ~ a much loved legal 2 family (but could easily work as a one family) with beautiful lush land and gardens. This Antique Center Entrance Colonial has been nicely preserved by a master craftsman and his wife for over 30 years. The main house has 9 rooms, 3-4 bedrooms, two full baths, 5 fireplaces/one natural gas and one wood stove, wide pumpkin pine floors, an open large family room and attached sheds. The family room and breakfast room lead to the lovely back yard. The gardens, multiple sitting areas, trellises and just the vastness of the open land will make one feel like they took a step back in time. The rental unit (accessible through the center entrance hallway) offers a very nice space - four rooms, 2 beds, fireplace and just a wonderful sense of privacy. This property is a treasure and will be shown by appointment only. Floor plan attached. Possibilities abound - Please DO NOT walk the property without the listing agent.
