Are you looking for the perfect antique home with the perfect setting? Well you’ve found it!
This wonderful 1790’s colonial was extensively renovated in the mid 80’s. Wiring, chimney repair, insulation, rebuilt additions, as a partial list , were part of the project as were handcrafted cabinets, shelving, paneling and Indian shutters. More recent repairs include a new septic system and metal roof for the attention-getting barn. The results are an amazing period home with gorgeous mountain views as the farm is at the crest of a country road surrounded by fields, trees and other farms. The country kitchen, located in the ell, has plenty of elbow room and cabinets, a wood stove, pantry, and access to storage areas. From here, step into the warm and inviting dining room wing off the back of the house. You will love to hold family gatherings here. Its cabinetry and cupboards offer storage and convenience. The Green and Red rooms are at the front of the house on either side of the home’s center entry. Both have fireplaces, built ins, shutters and paneling.
Another wood stove is in the keeping room, set into a fireplace with beehive oven. In here you will also find reproduced built-in shelving, paneling, and access through French doors to the screened-in porch that flanks the side of the house. It’s the perfect spot for those hot summer afternoons when you want to relax, catch a breeze and marvel at the mountains.
The second floor offers three bright, airy and large bedrooms with good sized closets and a fourth smaller room that would make a perfect office or sewing room. A modern, full bath is shared here.
The third floor has yet another bedroom or heated storage as well as unfinished attic space.
Behind the house, just steps away, is the magnificent 40’ x 70’ antique barn. Used for sheep, there is enough headroom to retrofit for horses, if you’d like. If you use it for animals, it is very convenient to access. Maybe you need a place to store your cars, collection boats or farm equipment.
The land is level, rolling and sloping in turn, the open acres are currently hayed. Stone walls line the road, create a path from the barn to the lower field and act as boundaries. The abutting land is currently being cultivated for low bush blueberries and neighboring open fields abound. Put this house on your “Must See” list.
