    This is truly a unique two-plus acre parcel of level open property that bears its lineage to one of the six original "Freemen" of Oxford in 1799, Chester Smith. There are portions of this home that was the original homestead established circa 1795 prior to the towns incorporation and since that time it has had additions and renovations to facilitate the needs of subsequent generations of ownership. The property has been recently surveyed and clearly staked with corner to corner open grassy fields complete with barn/garage for storage. There is over 2800 square feet of living space in this home with five bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The home features an expansive country kitchen, formal dining room and a four season solarium off the dining room that can be utilized as an office or just a place to relax and enjoy a cup of tea or a fine book.There are two fireplaces one in the living room and the other in the family room/den off of the the Kitchen. There is a main floor full bathroom and bedroom with the the second full bath and half bath on the 2nd floor with the remaining bedrooms. All mechanicals are fully operational. The boiler was replaced in 2004, and the roof was replaced in 2012.
