An elegant white 19th century farmhouse stands on four aces with sweeping views ofbountiful gardens, a picturesque pond and park-like lawns. Just passing by, it is clearthat the current owners have been excellent stewards of this historic property, a belovedfixture along one of the prettiest roads in the area. Even though the house was built withlarge rooms and high ceilings across all three floors, carefully considered expansionsover the years added still more space for entertaining, as well as the possibility ofsingle-level living. French doors flanking the living room fireplace open to a glorioussunroom with a stone floor and a commanding stone fireplace. A corner wet bar isperfectly placed to keep refreshments handy for dinners out on the patio. Off thecelebration-sized dining room, the second addition serves as an office or a stunningguest suite with French doors beneath a beamed ceiling. The eat-in kitchen has modernfunctionality with pro-level appliances and an open sightline into the family room, yetcustom cabinetry feels period-appropriate and a walk-in fireplace stands as a reminderof meals simmering all day over a constant flame. Even pass-through areas are roomyand useful, like the back hall, with a powder room and loads of built-ins storage, thatleads to the quietly situated library with incredible views of the grounds. The bestvantage point, however, is a big sun deck off the largest of five second floor bedrooms.All have great closet space, especially the primary suite with a walk-in outside thecheerfully tiled bath. With a full kitchen and a clean white bathroom, the multi-room thirdfloor serves equally well as an au pair apartment or a spot for all-day play and all-nightsleepovers. This entire property has successfully and gracefully evolved with changingtimes, thankfully, without losing any of its authenticity. Even the cupola-capped garagebeautifully supports the needs of a modern lifestyle with three bays, a workshop andsolar panels. This home can be converted to public sewer.
