Step into a piece of local history at River Bend Farm, affectionately known by generations of locals as the Roxy Pratt House. Built in 1835 and once serving as a parsonage, this well-cared-for 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath Cape Cod beautifully combines historic character, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional setting on a surveyed 9.43 acres with 600+/- feet of frontage on the Sandy River! Inside, the home retains the warmth and craftsmanship of its era, with exposed wood beams, an eat-in kitchen and four fireplaces-two functioning and two decorative-that add character and charm throughout. Modern comforts include radiant heat in the bathroom and new energy-efficient solar panels boasting a nearly nonexistent electricity bill. Outside, the property offers a beautiful setting for relaxing, exploring, and enjoying the outdoors. Large open fields provide plenty of usable space, while an impressive 1,112 feet of road frontage offers versatility. Two large attached barns provide tremendous storage and workspace potential, complemented by an attached workshop area for hobbies, projects, equipment, or potential to become a summer kitchen. A detached three-car garage adds another layer of versatility and is equipped with the ability to accommodate radiant-heated floors, if desired. The home's overall care and preservation make it ready to enjoy while offering the distinctive character of an historic New England property. River Bend Farm is more than a home-it is a property with a story. From its days as a parsonage to its longstanding local identity as the Roxy Pratt House, this special homestead has been part of the community for generations and is ready for you to come home and write your chapter!
