The term "a special offering" tends to be overused, but it is entirely appropriate here. If you saw this before, make sure to check it out again as it is back on the market with fresh paint, throughout the interior, refinished wood floors and a BRAND NEW SEPTIC! Stately Antique Colonial Equestrian Estate with Cape Cod ell, hidden apartment within & endless charm! This home blends timeless detail with modern updates on a stunning, versatile property. The main home features a flexible layout with expansive rooms, original wood paneling, wainscoting, multiple carved fireplaces, and up to 7 potential bedrooms. The en suite front-to-back primary is a true retreat, and the little "apartment" in the cape ell offers ideal space for a teen suite or in-law setup. Recent updates include: New Roof (2020), 60+ new windows, 20KW whole-house generator, updated siding & insulation, fresh paint throughout and a finished attic. The exterior is truly exceptional: acres of irrigated, manicured lawn, vibrant gardens, and mature trees create a true park-like setting. A 5-stall English-style barn accommodates horses, sheep, or chickens, and thereâs a heated workshop/goat barn, fenced pasture, volleyball court, and a massive outdoor pavilion with kitchen, 3/4 bath, and covered dining area. A separate paved parking area provides ample space for large gatherings and events. Historic charm meets modern comfortâthis is a one-of-a-kind estate built for living with multiple generations under one roof, entertaining and making memories that will last for many lifetimes. This is not an official wedding venue at all, but it has hosted numerous large gatherings for family over the last several years. Listed WELL UNDER assessed value!
