From this beautifully restored 1793 farmhouse one can hear the stream that runs along the entire length of the property while enjoying the seasonal fragrance of blooming gardens & mature trees. In 1793 the original owner, a shipbuilder, positioned a large mast in the house to support a staircase for 3 floors & to be a focal point. The impressive front porch & entry on the first floor opens into the original keeping room (now the kitche/family room) which boasts a large hearth, beehive oven & half bath all recently renovated. A formal living room & a library/bedroom are on the second floor with wide chestnut floors throughout, built-in cabinets & bookshelves and a fireplace. Through a lovely foyer, there is access to a spacious 2 story guesthouse with kitchen/bath, 2 stall barn withfenced paddock and mature gardens. There is a heated inground pool and enclosed garage. On the 3rd floor of the main house there is a master bedroom with walk-in closet, bath & guest room. All are beautifully restored featuring original beams. It is no surprise that this truly magical property has been featured in many books & magazines (house & garden, ct country and ct cottages & gardens). This property is private & filled with charm, a true mini estate.
