Property Description
The original structure dates back to the mid 1800’s and a recent addition was constructed in 1990’s. The property consists of 8.02 acres with fields and a pond, out buildings and a stream along with woodlands. Meticulous complete rebuilding was done by the current owners with the stonework from indigenous field stone and woodwork milled and handcrafted onsite. As you enter the home through the front porch with its whimsical porch swing and beautiful entry door you will immediately notice the impressive attention to detail in every corner of the home. A beautiful foyer with stain grade millwork and tile flooring greet you as you enter. Tile flooring continues into the laundry room with Victorian style vanity. The magnificent kitchen features oak cabinetry, modern oak flooring, granite counter tops, brushed stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, ceiling fan/light and beautiful spiral back staircase from the master bedroom. The adjacent great room has been thoughtfully created to maintain a farm home feel but incorporating handcrafted woodwork, radiant floor heat, cathedral ceiling with beaded tongue and groove ceiling with skylights, doorways to the side covered porch and side patio.
