A home with a Disney connection has landed on the real estate market in Centerville, Massachusetts, for $2.19 million.

“Exposed beams throughout the first floor are combined with stunning windows that provide stunning views of the lily pond, on this spectacular property designed by Frederick Law Olmstead, the landscape architect for Central Park, Arnold Arboretum & more.”
It’s also a stone-throw’s distance from Craigville beach.
The listing mentions that Disney wrote the classic animated film in the towner, which the home is built around.
Other features include:
Three floors
Updated basement
