Property Description
A Portal to the Past...this property is a stunning example of an early nineteenth century stone Georgian style building in amazing condition listed on the Historic American Buildings Survey done in 1958. Original period characteristics remain while improvements were made for today's living. Ornate front entrance with dated plaque above door displays the original owner's name. Door hardware exhibits strap hinges, rim locks and rim latches, deep window sills, stone accent walls, crown and chair rail moldings, built-in hutches, cabinetry and bookcases, plus classic random width hardwood flooring. The living room runs the full length of the house showcasing the massive open hearth fireplace which was commonly used as kitchens in the early 18th century. The front wall reveals corner glass hutches and middle storage units, plus the wood beam coffered ceiling and textured walls add rustic charm. Matching window lights around French doors which lead to flagstone patios. The custom kitchen found opposite of the grand foyer is the centerpiece between the stately dining room and breathtaking great room with soaring timbered ceiling, ornate carved wood and marble fireplace, plus multiple windows and French doors survey the pictorial grounds and outdoor living. Custom butler's pantry in niche at back of great room, 2 half baths on this level and a main plus rear staircase to the upper floors. All 4 levels are finished encompassing 7308 SF, 6 bedrooms, 4 full/3 half baths, a recreation room on the 3rd floor and one in the lowest level, plus a vaulted wine cellar underground. The Master bedroom is private and found at the back of the house incorporating the laundry room, sitting room, walk-in closet and upgraded Master bath. This gentleman's farm sits back from the road offering the traditional outbuildings of a stone-end bank barn with 2 horse stalls, smokehouse, springhouse, detached 3-car garage, paddocks and run-in shed. **A new well pump, boiler, hot water heater, exterior painting and major landscaping all done in 2015!!**
