Property description
A truly unique two building historical property, originally known as the Ebenezer Davis house (1848). This antique property has been lovingly restored by the current owners with abundant charm, 3 fireplaces, several porches, and gleaming wood floors throughout. The freestanding carriage house has been converted to an accessory apt/studio/home office affording unlimited possibilities. Each structure contains all utilities and separate heating and A/C. The captivating Nashoba Brook runs through this 4 AC property and provides a stunning natural landscape complete with ponds, two waterfalls, and granite lined raceway. Two footbridges welcome you to your very own private island. This property is a reminder of Monet’s Garden, with gardens, a maze, & fully restored two story Gazebo adorning the landscape. It is a private paradise but conveniently located to the Acton center, shopping, commuting routes, and discretely adjacent to the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail.
