Below assessed value! $499,900.00 " Own a piece of history. Historic Real Estate for Sale! 74 Amesbury Rd in our little town of Kensington hit the market. This house was one of the original school houses in Kensington! It was built between October 1797 and May 1798 on the site where the current brick schoolhouse sits and then moved to its current location when the brick school was built." previous is a Quote from the Kensington Historical Society. Lots of natural light yet protected from the summer sun by two huge maple trees, abundance of privacy with the natural landscaping and sloping terrain, as you enter the home through the side door right away you get that warm homey feeling, and it continues throughout the home. A new roof will be installed on the house before closing and with some stain on the home the curb appeal will be amazing. The garage/barn is a wonderful expansion of the home. One side of the barn was once a flower shop which would need town approval. The remnants still remain, insulated, electric, wall heater, barn board walls and floor, even the walk-in flower cooler remains. Still room to park your vehicle and plenty of loft storage space, two other outbuilding remain on the property. Here is your change to live in the Kensington community, with town social events, acres of trails on private and town owned conservation land, state of the art Sawyer Park, Exeter School system, near Massachusetts border, a great commuter location.
