Welcome to Rose Cottage as it was originally known in the 1700's, built by Benoni Bailey. This charming and unique home is a thoughtful combination of restored original hand hewn farmhouse with a modern addition seamlessly bringing you thru the centuries. From the minute you walk in the door you are struck with gorgeous beams and wide plank floors. The kitchen is a cooks delight with light cherry cabinets and plenty of storage. The main level library is the perfect nook to cuddle up and read a book, use as an office and whatever your imagination affords you. The living and dining areas are bathed in light, and you will enjoy watching nature stroll by your windows. The guest room, on the main floor has a stone grotto shower and wide board floors. It is light and bright, so your guests may never want to leave. The primary suite also on the main level is a newer addition. There are high ceilings, a slider to an 800 sq ft bluestone patio, coffee/drink bar and bathroom that will give you years of pleasure with a lava stone slipper tub, 2 person marble steam shower and double sinks. Upstairs there are 2 additional bedrooms and bathroom as well as access into the attic which is fully insulated. The basement level boasts 2 storage areas including a 1600 sq ft +/- temp and humidity controlled area. The property is a gardeners delight with many perennial beds, "Frog Pond" and stream, where you will want to sit and have your coffee on those beautifully quiet mornings. Other features include a whole house generator, newer roof, seamless vinyl siding, and a 4 yr old high efficiency boiler. There is potentially plenty of room for a pool to be placed off the bluestone patio upper lawn. This is a property that should not be missed.
