A Fairytale Cottage tucked away in Martin's Creek.
Looking for a rare find? A one -of -a- kind property full of charm and craftsmanship?
Look no further. This 150-year-old home has been lovingly restored to highlight its
exceptional charm and beauty. Clad in traditional white stucco with flower-filled window
boxes and rose-covered arbors it has the look and feel of a fairytale cottage.
A comfortable breakfast nook invites you into a sun filled kitchen featuring original
custom cabinetry. With its buff tile floor and blue and white Delft tiled backsplash, you
feel as if you’ve entered a cottage in the Cotswolds. The hand-crafted carpentry
continues in the dining room with custom moldings and a built-in- China cabinet. All-
wood floors lead into the living room that features built in bookcases surrounding a
classic bay window.
For a quiet read step into the cozy study encircled with whimsical wrap- around
bookshelves and a wood-burning fireplace faced with hand crafted Mercer tiles. French
doors lead out to a covered porch that overlooks a charming, tiered garden.
Settle in with an iced tea and rocking chair in the four- season sun porch looking out to
a majestic view of woodland and hill side. Or sit with a hot chocolate in winter as you
gaze out at a snow-covered wonderland. This room brings nature in and its southern
exposure allows for all season gardening in pots and containers. A convenient half bath
completes the downstairs.
Upstairs there is primary bedroom with cathedral ceiling and two additional bedrooms.
(one currently used as a craft room). A large main bathroom features two sinks, a
built- in linen closet and a vintage claw foot tub.
A secluded large backyard offers a serene landscape surrounded by mature trees and
shrubs. The garden planted with roses and perennials steps down onto a brick patio
and custom-made pergola.
A two- car garage is also clad in stucco with matching window-boxes filled with flowers.
A private entrance leads to two large rooms and a full bath on the upper-level offering a
variety of options for use, such as an office, art studio, or guest/extended family- accommodations.
Just 90 minutes from both New York City and Philadelphia this unique one -of- a- kind
property is located 7 miles north of Easton in the peaceful village of Martins Creek.
