Description:

Perched on a verdant lot, this masterfully preserved circa 1699 home awaits its new stewards! Winding up the driveway past the lovely cedar-roofed barn, there is just enough drama to set the stage for something truly exquisite. Quartersawn oak clapboard, hand-wrought nails, & a gorgeous granite chimney hint at what lies within: an absolute jewel box of an antique home. Entering through the salvaged door, beautiful beams, artisanal plastering, & perfectly-patinaed wide plank floors work harmoniously with modern updates (AC, plumbing, electric, modern foundation!) to create an inimitably authentic, yet comfortable aesthetic. From the curated hardware on the reclaimed doors to every architectural flourish, craftsmanship abounds. The floorplan has exceptional flow within thoughtfully defined spaces providing ideal versatility, and the scourge of low ceilings is nowhere to be found! The striking dining area w custom windows opens to a wonderful galley w bespoke tiled counter and backsplash, newer appliances, & handsome pantry. Living room is anchored by a stunning grand hearth w beehive oven - a natural hub for cozy gatherings! A fireplaced study / BR & full bath round out 1st fl. Upstairs, the primary features an ensuite bath. Across the hall awaits a 2nd BR w office space or possible 4th BR. Walkout basement w finished space great for gym or den. Brick-floored barn w elec has potential for a dream studio. This home's rich heritage is ready to help you write your next chapter!
