Property Description
Unmatched Entertaining & Rural Ambiance
Whether you prefer to host gatherings or enjoy the quiet of nature you can here, with multiple patios, a secluded fenced-in side yard, fruit trees, and gardens. The property has the peaceful feel of a rural retreat yet is walking distance to restaurants and only 4 blocks up the hill from the Millstone Canal where you can walk, bike, or canoe.
When entertaining moves inside, this home will not disappoint. The bright inviting floorplan has plenty of room and harkens to a simpler time with beautifully restored wide plank flooring in the kitchen and pumpkin pine throughout the second floor, a dining room and front parlor with high ceilings, and large windows. But the renovated oversized kitchen is truly the heart of the home, featuring custom cherry cabinetry, exposed original brick wall, Anderson 400 windows, a premium Electrolux gas/electric range & oven, Bosch dishwasher, convection oven/microwave, built-in wine fridge, and abundant cabinet and pantry space. A sunlit den with panoramic views of the backyard and a full bath flows off the kitchen for seamless entertaining or could be converted to a mother-in-law suite complete with a private entrance.
Upstairs holds 2 full baths, 2 large bedrooms, each of which has been used as the master in their 150+ year history, and a 3rd bedroom perfect for a kid or as a guest room. The back bedroom has a luxurious on-suite bath with spacious walk-in shower, Victoria & Albert freestanding soaking tub, double vanity, and heated towel rack, as well as a sitting room that can be used as a nursery or second office.
A standout feature is the large bonus outbuilding with new roof and updated electric; this bonus building presents exciting possibilities to modify for your needs.
