A Piece of North Country History - Your chance to call it your own! Rare opportunity to bring new life to this incredible 1825 stone house which has been formally occupied by noted North Country Author, Frederick "Fred" Exley. Much of Exley's acclaimed novel, "A Fan's Notes", was written here. Other noteworthy works include "Pages From A Cold Island" & "Last Notes From Home". Over 5 acres accompanies the home which would allow for a small farm if you so desire. Just imagine what a little TLC would do for this property - Absolutely Incredible! Original stone, hand carved beams and bright windows are sure to WOW. This is surely a must see - Call today!
