Tucked along a quiet country road, the Isaac Backus House (c.1787) is a beautifully preserved New England Colonial on 45 private acres with stone walls, walking trails, and a pond. This 4-bed, 3-bath home offers 3,259 sq ft of timeless charm-wide-plank floors, hand-sawn beams, and six working fireplaces, two with pizza and bread ovens. A spacious kitchen with gas cooktop, stainless appliances, and stone fireplace overlooks the patio and herb garden.
