The much-admired Foster Robinson House, circa 1875, is now on the market! This intriguing and extensive property once encompassed most of the surrounding land (including the Pinecrest neighborhood). This true one-of-a-kind gem, with its gorgeous large BARN/CARRIAGE HOUSE, recent updates and unquestionable street appeal, is a true treasure. Upgrades to this cozy home include a brand new septic, interior painting, new carpeting upstairs, almost all windows replaced, newer Carlin furnace, and a new chimney in '21. Baths are 10 years +-. Large eat-in kitchen, 1st fl. laundry, unheated but great mudroom, a full basement (freshly painted) with an effective sump pump, fabulous back-yard and neighborhood and a short walk to the Plymouth River School! And, these are just a short list of some of the appealing advantages to this cozy and captivating property.
