The attractive kitchen showcases creative storage solutions and an island crafted from a blacksmith’s workbench- a homage to the property’s rich past. A generous living room features a grand fireplace, built-ins and ample space for relaxing and entertaining. Flooded with natural light, the dining room has a built-in vault that will surely spark conversation at dinner gatherings.

A lovely patio overlooks the dramatic landscaped grounds and large pond with flowering lily pads. Winding paths guide you to a hidden pond, the river, a two story barn, milk house and original black smith shop now a bona fide man cave!
