Property Description

Step into the timeless charm of this 1735 Cape, where three centuries of history have been beautifully renewed for today’s living. Set on nearly two peaceful acres, this impeccably maintained home showcases wide pine floors, hand-hewn beams, and sunlight filling every room. Thoughtfully updated from the ground up - with batt insulation, cedar siding, Andersen windows, an artesian well, and a brand-new four-bedroom septic - every detail honors the home’s craftsmanship while enhancing comfort and ease. The bright custom kitchen with cathedral ceilings and French doors opens gracefully to the outdoors. Tranquil bedrooms and spa-inspired baths offer a restful retreat. Outside, a two-story barn and enchanting she-shed provide endless possibilities for work, play, or gardening. Ideally located in the heart of Plympton, this home delivers privacy, serenity, and a sense of place that only time can create - a rare opportunity to own a piece of New England history, lovingly renovated for today!
