This remarkable estate, known as the General Amariah Kibbe Homestead, has had only three owners since its construction in 1785 and once served as a welcoming inn. Set on 6.09 scenic acres (4.58 acres plus an adjoining 1.51-acre cel), the property offers a stunning blend of preserved heritage and thoughtful modern updates. Inside, the expansive floorplan showcases original wide board yellow pine floors and timeless architectural details throughout. The heart of the home is the beautifully expanded kitchen and keeping room-thoughtfully renovated to blend old-world character with modern convenience. Highlights include exposed beams, a classic fireplace, a commercial-grade stove, and high-end appliances, all with seamless access to the formal dining room. Upstairs, you'll find five generously sized bedrooms, each featuring decorative fireplaces and abundant charm. The home also includes two basement areas: one housing updated mechanicals, dual oil tanks, and a poured concrete floor. Outside, the grounds are equally impressive, with several functional outbuildings-including two large barns, a workshop, and a poultry house/chicken coop. With space for 2-3 horses, this property is ideal for equestrian use or for anyone seeking a picturesque retreat steeped in history. A rare gem for the true historic home enthusiast.
