Description

Built in 1808 by sea captain Joseph Rutherford, this stately 4 bedroom colonial is located in the quaint and tiny village of Salisbury Heights. This historic home is a perfect picture of the past with period details including wide pine plank floors, 4 wood burning fireplaces, Indian shutters, gunstock corners, and the narrow “ship’s captain” staircase that still graces the front hall. You can appreciate the past but enjoy the many updates like the huge family room with its massive stone fireplace...Built in 1808 by sea captain Joseph Rutherford, this stately 4 bedroom colonial is located in the quaint and tiny village of Salisbury Heights. This historic home is a perfect picture of the past with period details including wide pine plank floors, 4 wood burning fireplaces, Indian shutters, gunstock corners, and the narrow “ship’s captain” staircase that still graces the front hall. You can appreciate the past but enjoy the many updates like the huge family room with its massive stone fireplace and cathedral ceiling, a 2-car garage with heated workshop, and a newer roof, rebuilt chimneys & Buderus boiler to name a few. The authentic architecture reflects the original commitment to artistry and quality that has stood the test of time yet provides for modern day living.
