Our neighborhood in South Grafton (historically known as Farnumsville) is one of several mill villages in central MA, all created between 1900-1920, built to house the mill workers and create close knit communities around whatever the mill was producing in that area. In our village, while our mill is long disappeared, and our neighborhood is now filled with all sorts of folks, we still have the same sense of community, where treating neighbors kindly and maintaining a pleasant and safe place to live ranks among the most important priorities. Never an evening goes by where people are not out for a stroll with friends, walking their dogs, or having a jog up and around the streets. There is a small park at the end of the road with a playground and a large field, and a small river park to explore just adjacent to our street off the main road.

This apartment is central to all that the area has to offer. Locally, we are 8-10 minutes from a three grocery stores, multiple convenience stores and gas stations, and delicious restaurants. We are a short drive away from walkable Millbury Center, which has a historic movie theater, brewery, great restaurants, and the best wings in the area. The famous Shrewsbury Street row of restaurants in Worcester is also 20 minutes away, as are other many attractions in Worcester. The “T” station that goes into Boston is a 15 minute drive, and to travel to the city by car is 60 minutes to the east. Providence is a 40 minute drive to the southeast and has its own rich tapestry of attractions as well.

TO NOTE:

There are certain quirks that come with a 100 yr old building.
- The basement, where the laundry is, is an unfinished but clean space. Those with mobility issues may have difficulty accessing the laundry.
- The heating in the apartment is uneven and bedrooms can have a chill even when the downstairs is cozy and warm. A space heater is provided for the third floor as no vents reach that space. In the summer, window air conditioning units are provided for all living spaces.
- The apartment itself is half a duplex, and shares a wall with a currently empty second half, which will be under light construction for the months of February and early March. We are offering these months at a discounted rate with the understanding that there may be occasional but not excessive noise disruptions during this time.
