On a country lane with upscale homes and estates there's even an " Old Blacksmiths cottage on the property with remnants of mechanicals still present " Originally built in 1870 the home has kept it's charm of yesteryear while still providing up to date amenities. Upon entering the glassed in sunroom you are immediately aware of the bucolic setting enhancing the stone patio with outdoor shower and perennial gardens. Newly refinished wide board floors abound in this house and lend a warm tone to the more modern accents. A delightful eat-in kitchen with Aga oven, sub-zero refrigerator and a huge copper farmers sink lead you into the more formal dining room. This includes French doors to the patio and the living room with modern fireplace. There is a room on the first floor which is used as an office and doubles as a guest bedroom. Upstairs is a crisp, sunny master bedroom, another office space and a full bath with marble counter top and a whimsical children's bedroom. This home boasts 2 walk up attics and a large full unfinished basement with high ceilings and a Buderus oil burner. There is a full house automatic generator on the property as well. The massive Barns and detached garages offer more possibilities as they flank a new state of the art built in, heated, Gunite swimming pool with spa and automatic cover. Come see this gem before it disappears!
