Description

Beauty, charm, and tranquility are overflowing at 87 Turkey Plain Rd. From the moment you step onto the property, a feeling of peace comes over you. The original farmhouse was built in 1890 (or so they say) and has been restored & maintained with the utmost love and care. Upon entering the main house, you will be greeted with elegant stained glass, “original” wide-board hardwood floors, bright and open rooms, high ceilings and plenty of space. The eat-in kitchen is a unique blend of hand-crafted...Beauty, charm, and tranquility are overflowing at 87 Turkey Plain Rd. From the moment you step onto the property, a feeling of peace comes over you. The original farmhouse was built in 1890 (or so they say) and has been restored & maintained with the utmost love and care. Upon entering the main house, you will be greeted with elegant stained glass, “original” wide-board hardwood floors, bright and open rooms, high ceilings and plenty of space. The eat-in kitchen is a unique blend of hand-crafted tile (which is said to have been made by a previous owner in or around 1970), and modern touches from appliances, granite counters, custom built-ins and spectacular views. French doors lead to a covered, wrap-around porch, where shielded from the sun, you can take in the entire 3.8 acres of rolling hills. Birds, deer, and turtles laying their eggs, are just a few of the friendly visitors you may see while relaxing on the porch swing on a warm summer evening. If you prefer to sit in the sun, the second porch off the master bedroom suite is perfect for sunbathing as well as watching the sun go down. Besides the breathtaking views, the master itself is the perfect oasis with a full bath and soaking tub, dressing area, and loft. With 4 total bedrooms (one of which could be used as a media room), you will never run out of space. If that wasn’t enough, the garage has 1177 sq ft of finished space including a full bath, workshop and wood burning stove. There truly is no place like home.
