Property Description

A rare opportunity where Northampton history, an exceptional location and redevelopment potential come together. Set on 0.59 acres abutting the Mill River, this historic converted saltbox offers approximately 2,100 sq. ft. with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, just minutes from the shops, restaurants, arts and culture of vibrant downtown Northampton. Publicly available historical information dates the home to approximately 1750 and associates its construction with the Nathaniel Clark family.
