The owners have lovingly brought this long-standing house back to its original glory, with great attention to detail. This extraordinary residence reveals hidden treasures at every turn, from the original wide plank floors that whisper stories of the past, to modern updates, including high efficiency Marvin windows, a window-filled sunroom overlooking the gardens, a primary suite with a bathroom and generously sized walk-in closet and a cathedral ceiling office with a rolling ladder that gives access to a wall of bookshelves and the loft above. In addition to the house itself, you will be wowed by the landscaping when you first step thru the breezeway door between the home and the oversized 2-car garage. The grounds feature extensive perennial gardens, mature trees, stone walls, walking paths, a bluestone patio, a sunken garden on the footprint of the property's original barn and a greenhouse/garden shed surrounded by raised vegetable beds. Located just minutes from the amenities of Williston & Burlington and yet a world apart. The antique back porch glider and the copper pig weathervane that adorns the magnificent slate roof, along with the family bibles and tool chest of Hiram Phelps, a blacksmith, inventor, and stone dealer who built the house in 1841, are included in the sale.
