About This Home

As of December 2014

Sensational Dorset Hollow River Setting on the Mettowee as it meanders through the most enchanting 5 acres. Terraced above the cascading stream this 3300 sf open floor plan with light-filled living all overlooks and sings to its environment. The character of New England tradition is enhanced by wide pine floors, nooks, crannies, and multiple fireplaces with step-down living room and a fabulous family room beyond all while the formal dining is creatively a part of the generous space perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is very large and "retro fresh" and yes great-room capable! Main level primary suite and all living walk out to the stone walled patio. The second floor is accessed by two staircases and offers three full sized suites and two smaller dressing rooms that can become what the need desires... two car garage and studio workshop... charming kitchen entrance with wood storage... it is all right here in beautiful Dorset Hollow!
