This c1780s original stone farmhouse with walk-in fireplace and recent additions is the quintessential country escape. Hidden from view of the rural lane and distant neighbors, the 18+ acres is an enchanting patchwork of woods and expansive lawn enveloping you in nature and absolute privacy. The large pond with gazebo is the perfect habitat for resident frogs that create their chorus on a warm summer’s night. A quaint rocking-chair front porch welcomes you to the charm and character found throughout, like rich, random-width wood floors, exposed beams and two fireplaces. The 2006 living room addition is the ideal gathering space offering radiant floor heat, exposed stone wall, built-in bookshelves and numerous windows framing the verdant views. The country kitchen opens to a large screened porch with flagstone floor, perfect for bug-free al-fresco dining, or possibly an enclosed sun room. Upstairs, both charming bedrooms have vaulted ceilings, one offers a brick fireplace and the other is lined with floor to ceiling built-in bookshelves. Wood floors grace both rooms and the sitting room next to the full bath. For your special visitors, the inviting guest house is complete with bedroom, full bath and sitting room with fireplace. The in-ground pool is the perfect spot for relaxation and exercise. A detached garage and separate 2-story antique farm building complete the canvas of this magical property.
