A rare opportunity to own an architecturally significant Arts and Crafts home has come to market in Putnam. The home is a three bedroom bungalow commissioned by a successful town merchant in 1930. This home boasts rare and classic design elements such as: quarter-sawn oak trim, coffered oak-trim ceilings, a brick exterior, terra cotta roof tiles, exquisite stained glass windows, a Pardee tile frieze, Rookwood tiles, an incredible marble-enclosed formal garden, and so much more! The special elements of this home do not end there. Lovingly cared for and improved by its current owners, modern updates include custom quarter-sawn oak cabinetry in the kitchen and bath, soapstone counters, luxury appliances, and upgraded bathroom fixtures. Along with its three bedrooms, the home features two full baths and a finished basement guest room or study with outside access. A garage is under the home for convenience. The lot includes .8 acres with formal gardens including a self-sustaining 12' marble Koi pond. Included with the property is the option to purchase a second, smaller two bedroom cottage which could serve as in-law or rental property. The two homes are listed together as G10139790. The cottage has a brick exterior, terracotta tile roof, and the same Arts and Crafts stylings. It is on a separate deed with separate utilities, and includes one acre of property and a three-car detached garage with recreation space on second story. More detail on the home in attachments.
