    What's special

    Meadow House circa 1770 is a Hip Roofed Federal period house with twin interior chimneys. On the market for the first time in 25 years, the current owners have been good Stewart's in preserving this 1770 gem. According to historic research the builder was David Kelley. In 1848 Albert Howland opened a tavern which was known as the Meadow House. Later when the railroad came through the Howland's opened a general store. Currently the property is a private residence with an allowed home occupation use by special permit. This property offers four bedrooms, two and half bathrooms. The kitchen and the bathrooms have been updated and the integrity of the Antique house and structure remains.

This property has been enhanced with today's comforts of modern plumbing, new kitchen, gas fireplaces (two are still woodburning) and a lovely sunroom.
