Set on 3.3 private acres just moments from Harvard’s town center, this five-bedroom home pairs historic soul with modern peace of mind. Behind its timeless character are updated plumbing, electrical, and heating systems, so you can enjoy the charm without the worry. The true showstopper is the historic 30x40 English-style barn, circa early eighteen hundreds, one of only two in Harvard. Sturdy, full of character, and brimming with potential, it’s ready for whatever you envision: workshop, studio, storage, animals, or gathering space. The surrounding cleared land is ideal for gardening, fenced-in pens, or play. Inside, the layout flexes with your needs. The first floor offers a full bath and an office that easily serves as a first-floor bedroom. Or keep all five bedrooms upstairs and use the first-floor room as a dedicated office or playroom. Upstairs also includes two full baths and a large storage space. A very large open living/dining/sitting area moves easily from formal entertaining to everyday living. Hardwood floors flow through most of the home, custom maple cabinetry graces the kitchen and two of the baths, and first-floor laundry plus ample basement storage cover the practical side. A freshly painted exterior makes a crisp, welcoming first impression. The location is hard to beat: minutes to Harvard’s schools, Bare Hill Pond town beach, the library, and the General Store. A rare chance to own a piece of Harvard’s timeless charm, with the major systems updated and ready for its next chapter.
