This exceptional home has been masterfully crafted to echo a classic New England antique—honoring historic charm while embracing modern comfort. Rich with period details like paneled walls, 10-foot ceilings, and traditional moldings, the interior blends timeless character with contemporary ease. A sweeping central staircase leads to three spacious bedrooms, a beautifully appointed full bath, and a convenient laundry area. The primary suite is a serene retreat, highlighted by exposed timber beams and a stunning hand-painted sky dome ceiling encircled by clerestory windows—an architectural centerpiece that floods the space with natural light and quiet beauty. Outside, the 400-foot-deep lot reveals a lush, private sanctuary featuring a Japanese garden, raised beds, and ample room for play, entertaining, or peaceful reflection. Brimming with character and soul, this is a home that must be seen to be truly understood.
