Own a piece of history with this farmhouse built in 1730, situated on over 7 and a half acres, surrounded by pristine farmland. Located down a long private road, the privacy is wonderful. Every detail was meticulously maintained when the current owners took this home down to the studs and rebuilt it in the revolutionary/primitive style. All this,while incorporating the modern conveniences of today. Painstaking work and energy went into each room/building to make this property a true show piece. So much so that they were featured in 'A Primitive Place/Primitive & Colonial Home & Garden Magazine'. The kitchen, breakfast room and family room is open and has an old world tavern feel. It replicates a tavern.The huge living room, has the first of the 4 gorgeous fire places in the home. Every room has original pine wood floors and hand humed beams . The Keeping room has another incredible fireplace that is a re-created beehive oven for bread baking. There are two sets of stairs to the second floor. The back set lead to one large bedroom with yet another fireplace. The first set of stairs lead to the huge master bedroom with the 4th fireplace, a third bedroom, walk up attic and a large bathroom with the laundry area. The gardens on this property make it an even greater show place. There is a secret garden, a rose garden and much more. The outbuildings include a massive red barn(three vehicles plus sized), that was recently painted. There is a gentlemen's office aside the rose garden and behind the main home is an original cabin that was moved to this property. The back, covered patio looks out at the cabin. This cabin has been staged and used along with the rest of the property for many garden and home tours. It is set up as a rustic cabin and has its own custom built river rock fireplace(the 5th fireplace on the property).This home has a whole house generator. A true piece of history exists with this one of a kind property. Words cannot describe the true grandeur and significance of this entire property. Practicality meets history with this quiet oasis.
