Description

An Heirloom Timber-Frame Home with Artisan Barn! This property is as much a story as it is a homestead. Rooted in the 1820s Greek Revival farmhouse that once stood near the road, the home was reimagined in 2002 when the original hand-hewn Dutch-style timber frame was preserved and given new life. Set on a new foundation deeper into the land, and meticulously rebuilt over the past two decades by a renowned master builder, the result is a turnkey home that combines history with modern craftsmanship....An Heirloom Timber-Frame Home with Artisan Barn! This property is as much a story as it is a homestead. Rooted in the 1820s Greek Revival farmhouse that once stood near the road, the home was reimagined in 2002 when the original hand-hewn Dutch-style timber frame was preserved and given new life. Set on a new foundation deeper into the land, and meticulously rebuilt over the past two decades by a renowned master builder, the result is a turnkey home that combines history with modern craftsmanship. Behind the residence stands an extraordinary 5,200-square-foot timber-frame barn, built by the same master builder as his own workshop. Designed with both beauty and utility in mind, it offers the scale and flexibility to serve as a studio, recreational retreat, or professional space.
