397 Locust St Swansea, MA 02777
Property details
About 397 Locust St
A truly unique home of almost 300 years old! The home is older than the United States! This colonial was most likely built with rough timber framing back then and was clearly well built, considering its age. This home has a large floorplan with a 2 car garage on 1.5 acres, so there is ample room for storage and parking. The yard is great for home farming or recreation and a short walk down the street to a local creamery for some delicious ice cream. 5 rooms in the house feature a fireplace and, though some of them are blocked, they are all in working order and the chimney structure has been rebuilt in the recent years. There is also a brand new 4 bedroom septic system and a newer roof, so the most major expenses have been taken care of. The rest is up to you, whether you want to keep it as it is, or work on restoring it back to period 18th century style.
