The main residence is a circa 1858 stucco over stone three-story colonial with two working fireplaces, a wonderful backyard porch that extends the length of the house, a "secret" wine cellar, and outside storage. The carriage residence is a separate one-bedroom cottage with a living room, kitchen, bath and a secluded brick patio. Both properties have mellowed pine flooring, whitewashed walls, wood beams, light-filled spaces and are interconnected with stonewalls, walkways and a drive with ample parking. A caretaker, family member or guest may occupy the cottage. Explore the possibility of working from home. May be perfect for an art/photography studio, etc. Separate utilities from the main house. Come explore the possibilities! May also be an interesting proposition for an investor. The Brownsburg Park, a 40-acre park with walking/jogging access, surrounds the property on two sides.
