Property Description
Remarkable and Unique home linking 1800's stone tenant house with properly proportioned additions, modern upgrades and a beautifully situated pool set on 2.2 acres. Attention to detail is evident inside and out! The grounds have been lovingly landscaped with a stunning array of plantings by the owners, both master professional landscapers. There is stream running through the property, past an old spring house and through the fenced pasture area with livestock shed. The in-ground pool has a pergola, is framed by an arched stone wall and colorful perennial gardens. The stone patio with awning wraps around the back of the home and provides sweeping views. The original stone house is fully restored and features old beams, timbers, barn wood, turned pie stairways and authentic wrought iron hardware. At ground level there's a finished walk-out office below the living room with a walk-in fireplace, below a bedroom and lastly, an unfinished attic. In the addition, the custom eat-in kitchen is top-of-the-line and features soapstone counters, an island with Granite counters & bar seating, country cabinetry, a Hearthstone soapstone wood stove set in an impressive stone fireplace, exquisite millwork, barn board beams on the ceiling and stunning hardwood floors. Don't miss the very special Granite dog-watering station! From the kitchen you'll find a large laundry room, a full bathroom and a multi-purpose area currently used as a home-school room. The Sunroom features a stunning beamed Cathedral ceiling, floor-to-ceiling windows and radiant tile floor heating. This wing of the home could be set up as a first-floor Master or In-law Suite with private entrance. From the other side of the kitchen there is a large living room with hardwood floors, a fireplace and glass doors that open to the Patio. There's also a quaint sitting room with hardwoods, built-ins, French doors to the Patio and a wonderful window seat overlooking the stream. Down an impressive staircase is a Rec room that walks out. The Master Suite has lovely windows, a bath with soaking tub, tiled shower and a walk-in closet. The other bedrooms share a large hall bathroom and there's an upstairs office space that could work as a 5th bedroom. There's a two-car detached garage with a full storage area above and a grand circular driveway. When he original stone house was expanded in 1963, old beams and boards from a local barn were used. The property is known locally as Wee Garne, which is Welsh for Little Garden.
