Back in the early 1800's, before Acton was even established as a town - a gentleman by the name of Hubbard settled on what is known as Hubbard's Ridge, built a center-chimney cape cod-style home. The house was built in the traditional post and beam style, with ''gunstock'' corners in the principal rooms. On the main level is a front-to-back living room with beamed ceiling, hardwood floors, and fireplace with woodstove insert. To the right of the main entry, is a dining room, with hardwood floors, a small bedroom and full bath. Adjoining the dining room is an oversized eat-in kitchen, complete with wood cook stove, and even a ''Dutch'' door that looks out to a small herb garden and the ''wishing well'' house! Upstairs, there are two large bedrooms and a walk-in cedar-lined closet! Off the kitchen is the three-car direct-entry garage with plenty of room for vehicles, ATVs and other toys! Outside, there is a three-stall turn-out horse barn, that needs some fixing up, but is perfect for sheltering horses or other livestock. Look off to the west, enjoy enchanting sunsets & view of the distant hills. Just down the road is a large operational apple orchard, a deligful restaurant, ale room & market offering meats and local produce. Located about one hour from Portland, ME, Portsmouth, NH, winter skiing in No. Conway area, ocean beaches and 2 hours from Boston. Public access to several of the region's lakes and ponds, too!
