Stately Historical Home With Magnificent Gardens
Welcome to one of the most beautiful and well-cared-for landmarks in the area. This stately four-bedroom, two-bathroom home offers large, welcoming entertaining spaces both inside and outside. Carefully developed pathways and gardens wind through the property, creating a serene sense of place. As you approach on the u-shaped driveway, the stately Georgian home projects a sense of history. Indeed, a detailed history of the home is available. But this home is not just a historical showpiece. It is a warm, welcoming home, ideal for entertaining and just plain relaxing.
From casual lunches in the potting shed, picnic lunches in the garden, to formal dinners in the dining room, this estate offers something for everyone. After dinner, move onto the large living room and cozy up to a fire for some nice after-dinner conversation. If you are feeling more casual, the family room boasts a wood-burning fireplace and lots of natural light.
There is a two-car garage attached to the home by way of a breezeway. The breezeway affords a nice transition from the garage to house as well as convenient entrance to the backyard.
If you enter the house from the breezeway, you arrive in the light-filled kitchen with built-in appliances. Off the kitchen to the left, there is a large laundry room with desk which leads to the main-floor bathroom. Circling the right of the kitchen, you are treated to a sunken sunroom overlooks the immaculate gardens. The grounds also offer an in-ground gunnite swimming pool and a 25 by 30 foot carriage house.
From the open-concept kitchen, you move onto the family room with its large stone fireplace and skylights keeping it bright and cheery. From there, you enter the formal dining room. The huge room is elegant enough for your most formal occasion but comfortable enough for your friends. As you exit the dining room, you move onto the formal living room with another fireplace.
Upstairs features four generously-sized bedrooms and one bathroom. There is even a light-filled sitting area in the upstairs foyer.
This is a very special property. Historical details have been preserved in the home and the addition to the home is sympathetic to the period. The overall effect is timeless. This house will continue to impress for another 200 years.
