Description:

Step back in time while keeping both feet firmly in the present at this breathtaking 1850 Antique Colonial, a home where history is preserved in every grain of the original wide oak plank flooring that stretches throughout the residence. Set upon a sprawling 9.6-acre sanctuary, this estate welcomes you with the timeless charm of iconic New England stone walls and the promise of a peaceful, private life. As you move through the home, the warmth of the central fireplace invites you to linger while the versatile layout offers modern solutions for today's lifestyle. This includes a gracious first-floor living room with built-ins that is perfectly positioned to serve as a generous fourth bedroom, complementing the three bedrooms upstairs. The story of this property continues beyond the main house, where a detached 300-square-foot studio beckons as the ultimate artist's retreat, fitness space, yoga studio or quiet sanctuary. The landscape is a masterpiece of nature and design, featuring a pond that serves as a focal point for morning reflections and a sprawling stone patio designed for outdoor entertaining. While the home honors its 19th-century roots, it does so with a meticulous eye toward modern reliability boasting a new boiler, recently painted exterior and newer well pump with tank to ensure peace of mind for years to come.
