This remarkable post-and-beam home, dating back to 1880, offers an apartment to offset the mortgage and a wealth of history, preserved and updated with meticulous care, all on 7.4 acres. The home features bright, inviting rooms, a walk-up attic, and a custom kitchen with quarter sawn oak flooring, granite countertops, and a Thermador gas range with a commercial-grade hood. Radiant heating is found in the entryway, bathrooms on the first and second floors, the garage floor, and the in-law suite. Significant upgrades were made in 2011, including a re-shingled roof, fresh siding with insulation, and new windows. Recent updates in 2022 include a 200-amp electric service, a 20kW Generac standby generator, and a System 2000 boiler.
A 36x40 commercial-grade garage, constructed in 2013, boasts radiant heated floor, high ceilings, a third door in the rear, and I beams for hoists. Above the garage is a spacious 1,656 sq ft, two-story, 2 to 3 bedroom in-law suite with radiant heating. The rear of the garage is your own private oasis, featuring an enclosed patio with a swim spa overlooking fields and forest.
The driveway was upgraded to a commercial-grade surface in 2017.
This versatile property offers numerous possibilities, such as a live-and-work business location, Airbnb, or possible wedding venue with planning board approval. This amazing home is in a country setting, but is located just 1.8 miles from I-295, making commuting a breeze. Welcome home.
