Description

This 1856 Essex farmhouse isn't just well cared for-it's been shaped by years of thoughtful, intentional stewardship. Set on 1.04 private acres with mature trees, curated landscaping, and hand-laid stonework, it reflects the steady vision of a homeowner who treated every upgrade as a form of stewardship. There are 4 fireplaces-including one outdoors-each anchoring a different rhythm of life. The kitchen is fully renovated yet honors the home's character. Beams have been re-supported, floors re-leveled,...This 1856 Essex farmhouse isn't just well cared for-it's been shaped by years of thoughtful, intentional stewardship. Set on 1.04 private acres with mature trees, curated landscaping, and hand-laid stonework, it reflects the steady vision of a homeowner who treated every upgrade as a form of stewardship. There are 4 fireplaces-including one outdoors-each anchoring a different rhythm of life. The kitchen is fully renovated yet honors the home's character. Beams have been re-supported, floors re-leveled, and footings laid for a future four-season room or expanded space. The garage includes a full loft, ideal for creative or practical use. Even the shingles were unified across house and barn-not because they had to be, but because the owner didn't believe in "piecemeal." This is a home shaped by intention, not just renovation. Quietly located minutes from Essex Village, it's ready for someone who sees what it is-and what it still could become.
