Step into Timelessness. Available for the first time in 4 generations this Early American Cape is set in the tranquil and uniquely beautiful Sheepscot Historic District. Nestled into the confluence of the Dyer and Sheepscot rivers, they say this is the oldest standing residence in the village. It was built as a parsonage for the historic church meeting house that still stands next door. The home's style has very much been kept antique, and there's a cottage on the property that you can rehabto give you 3 bedrooms in addition to the main house's upstairs which boasts a classic New England one-or-two-bedroom layout. Thanks to the cottage, you'll have room to house your visiting family, friends, or Air BnB buddies. This is your opportunity to live in an unparalleled historic setting! Take over garden space with great soil, or just watch the water roll by. Inside you can relax in front of the fireplace or gather with friends in the dining room. Upstairs you'll find an open room that's currently used as an office but could become a master bath or walk in closet leading to a well- porportioned bedroom. Outside you'll find space for relaxing, a working garden, and wonderful old big trees, all tied together by a small workshop space. From the wide board floors to the brilliant stone foundation this property is a delight to enthusiasts and people simply looking for a great place to live. Being in the historic district means you'll be protected against any non-period architecture happening nearby. The fooprint of the cottage is grandfathered, so you can repair it or build new there or on the additional acre available out back! Check out our wonderful home in this very desirable location.
