Tristram Collins House-Rich in history & early features, this home is wrapped around its center chimney with 4 FP’s, one of which has been fitted with an efficient woodstove. True 9-over-6 windows, original raised paneling, a keeping room with hearth and and antique pot crane are but a few of the authentic details. The applianced kitchen has good storage, 2 dishwashers, and a dual-fuel Wolf range for the chef! The ell holds a 3/4 bath, a laundry with W&D, and direct access into the 17’ x 19’ screened porch where warm weather meals, reading, and bird watching are enjoyed. Upstairs via a turned staircase are 2 front BRs, one with a walk-in closet. Two other rooms may be used as a bedroom and a sitting room. The converted attic is a dream for both the telecommuter and the creative spirit, with an office tucked neatly at one end, and a studio at the other, each with full walls of storage. Outside is magical! There are raised garden beds, fruits and berries, and a fire pit. A tranquil water garden has a wide variety of plantings and color from spring to fall. It was designed with a small pond and waterfall as its focal point. Acres of woods offer walking trails, and long road frontage assures your setting is permanent. It’s a short walk to Chase Park with a beach and boat launch on 268-acre Lake Horace. In winter, Pat’s Peak, with night skiing, is just 10 minutes away! Whether a forever home or a seasonal generational home, this one will delight your historic senses!
