Someone opened up a can of "historic wonder" and sprayed it all over this house and MAGIC, in the blink of eye, several generations dating from the mid 1700's now give blessings on this house sale for the select buyer. Very well maintained over the ages and close to its original state, (bathrooms excepted, of course!) Take a breathtaking trip through history, a very pure and well-kept historic, center-chimney Colonial with large rooms, nice stenciling, a formal front entrance with upstairs landing, a great room with working fireplace and hearth, and large windows overlooking a private, well-landscaped, heavenly, backyard with a row of crab apple trees, pergola, patio, and perennial plantings. Flower garden with veggie beds too. Protection all around from encroachment because you own the land. Inside, marvel over a brick-arched cooking enclave and wonderful pantry. Ruminate on the pegged post-and-beam construction of the great room where the space is more than adequate for the dining pleasures of family and guests alike. They will all be "wowed." Throughout the home are many built-in formal cabinets and 7 fireplaces! Twin side-by-side bedrooms, a master bedroom that will awe you & also authentic historical glass. Hardware too! Add to this a library, extra storage, a formal dining room and love. Folks, the house really does impress and deserves a buyer that will take great care as these owners have done. Storage? Yes! Head room? Yes! Comfort and charm? Yes! Near Scoby lake.
