Located on the Willington/Ashford town line, this 1900 country home is one of the original homesteads on Seckar Road, the road itself named after the early owner. It has undergone renovations over the years and features beautiful extra-wide pine floors, exposed beams, and board-and-batten siding sourced and milled right on the property, along with new insulation, drywall, and a fresh coat of paint throughout. Upstairs (not included in the total square footage), the flexible layout can be configured as an office space or a playroom/game room. The home sits on a 5.75-acre parcel. An additional 0.88-acre parcel and an 11.01-acre building lot are also available. The combined parcels include roughly 10 acres of stone wall-bordered fields, over 1,200 feet of road frontage, mature fruit trees (apples, pears, and peaches), a chicken coop, and dual water systems: a house well plus a separate farm well. The farm well is plumbed with two frost-free hydrants and watering stations, making this a practical, ready-to-use homestead and a quintessential New England scene. Welcome home to 79 Seckar Rd! Home to Be Sold As-Is. Cash with quick closing preferred.
