This Mattapoisett Village gem is like a blank canvas ready to become a dream-home. Formerly known as Red Oak Farm, this circa-1924 residence blends Colonial Revival architecture with Craftsman-style details and is set on more than an acre of gently sloping, cleared, graded and terraced land. The property includes a detached two-car garage and a fully enclosed Post Barn that has been thoughtfully restored. The interior of the primary residence has been substantially prepared for renovation. The property has new electrical service, limited interior lighting and outlets, and an exterior water faucet; however, it does not currently have complete electrical, plumbing, heating, or cooling systems. Significant improvements include new roofs, gutters and drainage for all three buildings; new electrical service from the street; buried conduit; seal-coated basement; in the barn there are new support beams; restored barn windows; salvaged barn doors; and new stairs to second floor. The home is ready for a buyer to bring a distinctive vision to life. Ideally located near Mattapoisett Village amenities, beaches and recreational opportunities, with convenient access to area highways, this character-filled property offers an exceptional foundation for creating a truly special home.
