One of Canaan’s historic homes is waiting for a new owner to bring it the rest of the way back to its former glory. A classic 13,400 square foot, historic Greek Revival, the 2 acres of lush lawns are framed by mature trees that stun in the summer or fall. A walking path leads to deeded beach rights on Canaan Street Lake. The property is located on the historic Canaan Street which is lined with beautifully preserved country estates. The stately architecture emotes grace and relaxed living. The property was purchased with the intent of doing a full renovation and bringing the property to an elegant wedding and event venue. The homes main floors have been gutted as the first step in that renovation. Events unrelated to the property itself brought a change of direction and is now available for someone with their own plans to apply to this cleaned canvas. Once the home of the Cardigan Mountain School after a long service as a well reputed inn. Interestingly, the first purpose was as a stagecoach stop in 1798. Don’t miss this opportunity. This property is being sold "as is".
