The “Palmer Place”, built in 1798, provides a serene sense of historic grace and timelessness. Step back in time and be enveloped by the rich history. Originally built by Hezekiah Palmer, a fine furniture maker renowned for his attractive, yet comfortable chairs. Most of his 7 generations of descendants that resided in the home became doctors, ministers, philanthropists, and teachers. In the early 1900s, Minnie Palmer Dean bequeathed two local treasures to the Woodstock community: the Palmer Arboretum and the Palmer Memorial Concert Hall. The Palmer Memorial Hall later served as The Woodstock Town Hall for 50 years and is now the location of the Woodstock Historical Society. This sale represents the first time “Palmer Place” is available to the public. The wonderful 2.1 acre lot contains level pasture, perfect for animals. You will love the peaceful bucolic views from the stunning covered front porch or 2nd floor open-air “Porch room”. The Porch Room at Palmer Place was a celebrated sanatorium for friends and family members used for open-air healing. Other features of the home include a Buderus furnace, updated electrical (200 amps), large bonus room, back patio, walk-up attic (possible expansion), fireplace, newer water heater, and wood floors. This is an estate sale, being sold as-is. The home has undergone considerable recent exterior improvements and is now ready for the buyer to provide finishing touches for the next historical chapter.
