Find Belchertown, MA Homes for Sale with a Fireplace
Belchertown records a fireplace on close to six listings in ten, which is high even for this part of the state. The older houses near the common have masonry chimneys and brick hearths built into the original plan. The subdivision houses along Route 9 and Route 21 more often have a fieldstone or brick faced fireplace in a room at one end, and a good number gained a woodstove insert during the oil price years. With this much land in town, wood is still a working fuel. Five College Realtors can confirm what a listing actually has.
