This country house retreat, cosseted by meadow and woodland, is complemented by the coastal estates, conservation lands, and historic farms, which are so evocative of the New England landscape. Its proximity to Boston, Providence, and NYC makes it an ideal getaway or a full-time residence. Vintage features include painted, old-growth flooring, exposed ceiling beams, panel doors with period hardware, and historic mantelpieces. The interior offers a sitting room, dining room, a bathroom with tub, and a well-appointed kitchen. The second-floor features two bedrooms with an adjacent home office.
