While originally built in 1757, this extraordinary home is the perfect blend of historic elegance and contemporary functionality with the only features over 25 years old being the beautiful beams, hardwood floors, fireplaces and charm! This completely updated, antique masterpiece is nestled on a level 2+ acre parcel surrounded by original stone walls and buffered by land conservancy. The completely private yard includes a blue stone patio and screened in porch perfect for entertaining. Enjoy tranquil mornings and evenings with the privacy and beauty this property affords. The white oak/chestnut and wide pine wooden floors and beams throughout the entire home create a warm and inviting ambiance. The stunning "barn" or great room, a former dairy barn from Quebec, Canada, was rebuilt on the property and is an ideal setting to host indoor gatherings. Car enthusiasts will appreciate the expansive, heated garage addition that accommodates four to five vehicles. Above the garage is a spacious 1000 sq foot loft with a complete bathroom which has endless possibilities for in-laws, guest quarters or home office. Whether you are looking for a forever home or weekend retreat, this home promises an unparalleled living experience. With its bucolic setting just minutes from town in the sought after Taunton Lake area, it is conveniently located with quick access to exit 9 off Interstate 84. This gem is truly the best of both worlds and a must see!
