Discover this charming home with beautiful period details, character and various updates over the past 30 years. This stagecoach house circa 1815 was renovated in the early 1990's and includes all new plumbing, wiring, and chimneys with five working fireplaces faced with the original brick and a beehive oven. The wrought iron chandelier was hand crafted in the blacksmith shop built behind the barn. The fireplaces are perfect for holiday decorating and a wonderful place to gather friends and guests in the ''keeping room''. Tall ceilings lend to the spacious and open atmosphere allowing for that large holiday tree and grand space for those special events. Imagine decorating the many mantles and the banister in the front hallway for the holidays! The original door welcomes you into this home bringing you back to the era of the stagecoach. The modern attached ell was constructed in the 1980's; a first-floor bedroom was added in 2003. Enjoy growing vegetables, fruit trees, flowers, blackberry and blueberry bushes, and flowering shrubs; all abound on the property. So many options for canning or freezing; a great opportunity to be self-sufficient. Relax at the end of the day with long walks and cross-country skiing behind the house. A playhouse behind the ell welcomes guests with great imaginations. The man-made garden pond on the north side of the house is home to plenty of frogs who perform music in the evenings. A few more of the many alluring details: a hidden staircase, a pantry beneath the main staircase, a passage from the main bedroom to the back bedroom, the envelope around the ell which brings incredible light, heating efficiency, spaciousness, and energy to the home. So much to discover, so many creative ways to take advantage of all this property has to offer.
