About This Home
As of March 2025Historically treasured, "The Jonathan Temple House." It's time to add YOUR name to a list of "keepers" of this magical home. Pure in many ways, including exquisite wide-pine flrs, a stunning beehive oven, beamed ceilings, & a "good morning" staircase, yet flawlessly restored maintaining the warmth & charm that can only be found in such a charismatic home. The mud rm entry is second to none, offering an inviting approach into the home & to the carefully designed kitchen w/rich finishes. The original beamed ceiling, hickory flr, soapstone counters, stainless "chef" appliances, copper farmers sink & vent hood, & a gorgeous expansive pine island together create this masterpiece. The HUGE DR w/bar & china cabinet is ideal for entertaining, while the LR is where you'll relax by the fire. The spacious FR is casual, yet elegantly appointed w/wainscoting & built-ins. Personality exudes from each of the 3 bdrms...the primary is a dream w/spa-like bath & roof deck. "This is a very special home!"
