Prepare to be impressed! This house is full of charming character, beautiful woodwork, and a surprising amount of square footage (2,802 feet according to the tax assessor) giving you lots of layout options. Tax records state that the home was built in 1900 but the owners believe the date of 1964 on the 2 story barn might be the actual construction year of the original stone part of the house. The attention to details you'd expect in a home of this era are still intact-10' ceilings, oversized trim & baseboard, crown moldings, built-in cabinetry, hardwood floors, etcetera-and in fantastic condition! 1979 brought a huge, redwood sided, 3 level addition that continued on with the tradition of handcrafted woodwork and quality craftsmanship. The main level features two massive sized bedrooms (were his and hers Master Bedrooms during their 44 years of ownership), two full Bathrooms, and five additional rooms besides the Kitchen giving you plenty of space to flex however you desire; potentially including a formal Living or Dining Room, spacious home Office, Library, Playroom, cozy Family Room, Music or Craft Room, the list goes on. The second floor showcases two more large Bedrooms plus the third full Bathroom. This area could also make a nice related living arrangement. The full, walkout basement houses the Laundry (several potential location options to move it to the 1st or 2nd floor), lots of dry storage, all the mechanicals including both furnaces (zoned), a workshop, and the attached Garage. The exterior of both the home and 2 barn were just stained/painted in July 2023. The home is in great shape with no known defects but being sold As-Is.
