About this House

Updated 50's ranch in great neighborhood of similar homes suits many buyers needs. Conveniently located at the end of a dead end, this is low overhead one floor living. 'Good bones' is how Realtors frequently describe 50's homes. Nice yard that is EZ to maintain and still gives the gardener in you an outlet. Your choice of spending time on your private back yard patio (overlooking woods) or the new sunny front patio. Seller UPDATES: kitchen & bath, installed gutters, a new furnace, new windows & doors plus patio. What's left to do? Nothing except buy it! Eligible for NO MONEY DOWN financing (through the USDA). Close to so much. Parks, universities, ski areas, pools, train to Boston and much more. Hot tub in garage can remain or not. It is hard wired - not plumbed. House is EZ to show. Few hours notice appreciated. Thanks!

    "Our neighborhood is fairly quiet though you can sometimes hear the gun range at the rod and gun club if you are outside. People are friendly but most often keep to themselves. It's close to shopping and amenities but feels removed from town."

    "Gardner is a small town which has everything, really. Town comes complete with a large park & some smaller ones; good schools, plenty of churches, shopping, an indoor & outdoor pool; a skating rink, 2 bowling alleys, some decent restaurants, a Wal-Mart, car repair shops, all major fast food type places, etc. For a little dot on the map, its got alot. If you live in town, you can walk to most of the major stuff. Public transportation is just adequate. Not a great hot spot for entertainment or nightlife; go to Worcester for that. A nice little family town; it needs to stay that way"
