This wonderful 1890s former hunting lodge has maintained its character over the years. The expansive property straddles both sides of the scenic, sleepy country road and incorporates a stretch of Basket Brook, a delightful trout stream that feeds into the Delaware. The kitchen features shaker-style cabinetry, marble countertops handy island, a couple of large, built-in kitchen cupboards, and 2 retro ranges. Separate dining rm overlooks the pretty pond. There is a fireplace insert in the living room with built-in bookshelves. Across the hall the office/den and the ground floor is rounded off with an updated full bathroom with shower. Upstairs there are 5 BRs, including a lg master, and a full bath with clawfoot tub and shower. The pièce de résistance is the lovely old barn, a spot for festive gatherings with a deck reaching out to a 2nd pond. The majority of the 172 acres is in a 480-A Forestry program, which requires preservation in exchange for reduced taxes. This is a unicorn of a property, just magical!
