The second oldest home in Chester, circa 1702, sits at the corner of Straits Road and Spring Street on an idyllic .85 acre lot, just a short stroll to Chester Village. Originally part of a large farm, the property was deeded to the Leet family in 1836. The barn, built in 1846, was the towns first schoolhouse and moved to the farm in 1873. The property, surrounded by mature trees, features stunning stonework and exudes peacefulness and charm. The home is deceivingly spacious and offers a plethora of opportunities to work within the current footprint or to expand to suit your needs. With original wide board flooring throughout and period charm, this is your chance to bring your redeeming touch and restoration ideas to this well loved home. Endless potential in a much sought after location! Being sold AS IS.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
