...A Timeless Estate: Where History Blooms
Step back into the grace of the past and discover a captivating historical jewel, settled upon a magnificent sweep of earth—approximately 5.25 acres of pure, pastoral serenity. Here, a sun-drenched open field melts seamlessly into the tranquil embrace of mature woodlands, crafting a private, picturesque haven. Architectural Charms and Elegant Refreshments
Within this stately residence, born circa 1906, you will be charmed by the warmth of its heart: gleaming pine wood floors that stretch like ribbons throughout, whispering stories of bygone eras. This grand home, spanning approximately 2,720 square feet of luminous living space, has been lovingly nurtured with modern comforts to ensure effortless living. Recent enhancements include a brand-new septic system, a vigorous new water heater, and dual HVAC units (one for each floor) promising perfect climate control. Even the venerable tin roof has received a recent, fresh coat of paint, shining uniquely beneath the sky. Light-Filled Spaces and Peaceful Retreats
The interiors are a testament to spacious elegance, featuring lovely, voluminous rooms bathed in the glorious cascade of natural light pouring through grand, numerous windows. Almost every room boasts the refined detail of classic chair railing and charming beadboard paneling, lending a timeless, cottage-core appeal. Porches and Possibilities
Imagine mornings spent on the spacious side porch (approximately 300 sq ft), or an evening of gentle swaying on the inviting front porch swing (266 sq ft), approached by an appealing stone walkway. Best of all, this idyllic estate offers the freedom of the countryside, welcoming the graceful presence of horses onto this special retreat. With two distinct entrances from the main road, your private world is easily and elegantly accessible.
