A home located above the Little Loom House is where the Hill sisters wrote the ''Happy Birthday'' song. This home has been well-lovedT over the past thirty years. Built of ''Kenwood Hill'' fieldstone and situated under a red gabled Victorian roof, it is historic and truly captivating. The beautiful front porch, meticulous landscaping, and original stained glass front door add to its charm and curb appeal. The pristine living room features a wood burning fireplace built of imported white marble. Thie living room includes hardwood floors, a built-in bookcase, and original casement windows for morning sunshine. Through the living room is a formal dining room featuring French doors and distinctive floral wallpaper. It is a great space for holiday gatherings or dinner parties.

The second floor of this home has a newly painted primary bedroom with a rustic woodburning fireplace. It offers breathtaking views of the neighborhood and surrounding area. This second floor has two additional bedrooms. The larger of the two bedrooms has both a walk-in closet and a large closet/dressing room. The second floor also has a full bath and office space.
The floored attic under steep eaves has great potential. An art studio, a playroom, a music room, or library - these are just a few of the many options. The ground floor is partially finished including a bedroom, laundry room, half bathroom, and entry into the garage. There is also a storm shelter located under the front porch. Fresh yellow paint on the garage door adds cheeriness to the north side of the house. There are many potential uses for the ground floor also with ample space to expand the finished area.
