This inviting, charming, one-level living home has a wonderful vibe with the mix of antique circa 1780 home with two newer additions on either side. The primary suite features a large bedroom, walk-in cedar closet, nicely sized ensuite bath with skylight over the soaking tub, and of course, the hidden ironing board. Doors open from the master to a south-facing enclosed sun porch for your morning coffee. The other wing consists of two more bedrooms; each can accommodate queen size beds, plus a Jack & Jill full bath. The original section of the home has a gorgeous wood-burning fireplace, study, and the third full bath. Throughout the home are wide plank floors, with the exception of terracotta tile in the surprise grand dining area. French doors open to a beautiful private bluestone courtyard with a many decades-old arbor of Wisteria. The property is enclosed with classic stone walls and an invisible dog fence. Completing this property are gardens, both fenced and open, with berries and herbs. Charming bluestone pathways meander through the grounds to the lovely garden shed. Truly more than can be described - Come walk the stone paths yourself.
