Description:

This property is one of a kind- a truly enchanting, historic haven nestled on nearly 10 acres of rolling woods and meandering trails. Built in 1780, the Daniel Hubbard House captivates at every turn with its rustic charm. The great room showcases exposed, hand-hewn wooden beams against vaulted ceilings, beautiful wide plank flooring, and is complete with a modern culinary space framed by two story windows. You can establish your primary bedroom on the main floor or upstairs- you can't go wrong, character and historic charm abound in every room of this home. In winter, gather around the warm glow of the wood stove, and in warmer weather, step through the French doors onto your picturesque terrace complete with a pergola adorned and shaded by grapevines. Outside the main home, you will find ample storage provided by a detached two-car garage, workshop and woodshed with a new roof. And perhaps the most special feature: you have a secluded pond house, complete with a wood burning stove and a wraparound porch overlooking the serene, spring-fed pond- a perfect spot for swimming, angling for bass or ice skating in the winter! There is a trail around the pond, as well as trails cleared throughout the properties' 9.83 acres of woods bordering the Pocotopaug Creek. The possibilities of this land inspire the imagination: there is space cleared for a potential barn structure, a vegetable garden plot awaiting your green thumb, and permits were recently approved for a farm stand.
