It’s said that old houses have both a soul and a story to tellLet this 115 year old, 1,662 sqft - 2/2 classic American Foursquare, with open sun-drenched rooms, tall beamed ceilings and original wood flooring be part of your story to tell. Set back from a quiet private road, and at the front of over twelve, densely wooded acres, with over 1.5 miles of maintained walking trails, a sweet she-shed, a garden fenced to protect it from the abundant wildlife the property attracts, a "paradise" for dogs with a huge fenced yard, and a coop for chickens, this property offers plenty of opportunities for story making. A broad front porch with a set of wide steps welcomes you in and an elevated back deck makes it easy to sit and enjoy the scenery, entertain often or dine al fresco every day. Rows of windows flood the rooms with natural light and beg for the blinds to be left open to enjoy the beautiful, natural views and the many native birds that outdoor feeders attract. The house features large, open rooms downstairs (an Entry, Living w/dining area, Kitchen, huge Office area, Primary Bedroom with EnSuite Bath and a Guest Bath) that naturally flow from one room to another and a single upstairs room with lots of nooks and crannies that, on occasion, is used as a bedroom for guests, but could just as easily work as a craft or speciality room too.In this day of instant gratification, high-tech everything and the hustle and bustle of busy lives, let this place be a respite to remind you what matters most; a quiet place to step back, take a deep breath, unwind and enjoy the peaceful solitude of home.
