The upper level hosts a master bedroom with large walk-in closet, full bath with claw foot tub, an additional bedroom and studio with skylight. Set on 1.5 acres of land just a short distance from downtown Chester, this home features an in ground pool, outdoor shower, one car garage and kayak rack. This property was built as a weekend home and was among the first homes in the area to have electricity (original generator housing is now root cellar) and legend say that a half-mile long hose pumped water from a nearby pond to fill the pool. Whether relaxing on the pool's deck, napping on the front porch or curled up by the fireplace, this home will become one's private sanctuary.
