"EDENDALE" The former country home of renowned artists Marvin Bileck and Emily Nelligan. Early 1700's diminutive eyebrow colonial on 13.5 lush mesmerizing acres with a large pond and abutting the Still River which leads to rushing waterfalls. There is also a summer cabin overlooking the pond, magical grounds, lawn, forest, and trails. There is abundant wildlife including deer and an occasional moose. The grounds are unbelievably magical and private. The home offers original period details, 3 fireplaces, winder staircase, wide-board floors, a massive fireplace with a beehive oven and open builtin sunburst cupboard in the main gathering room. The Book EDEN ON A COUNTRY HILL is about this property. The house will need a COMPLETE refurbishing including but not limited to plumbing, wiring, kitchen and more, and it is ideal for personal enhancement. Inspections are for informational purposes only.
