About This Home

As of November 2023

***Only due to buyer 'cold feet' is this beautiful home back to Active*** Welcome to 1401 Dowlin Forge Road, a historic farmhouse originally built in 1830 along the banks of Shamona Creek, nestled in a tranquil setting surrounded by nature. This one-of-a-kind 4 bedroom 3 bath home plus 2 bed 2 bath guest house maintains the integrity of the original craftsmanship while still offering the modern updates you desire. The 1st level of the main home features a living room with a wood-burning stove, dining room, and an eat-in kitchen with access to an elevated deck overlooking the stunning backyard. A few steps down is the immense great room, with a gas fireplace where everyone gathers together on cool days indoors, and sliders to the exterior and waterfront views. A full bathroom with a walk-in shower and a mudroom finish off the main living level. Upstairs, the primary bedroom, with a walk-in closet and second-story laundry, and a second bedroom boast brand new carpets. Two more bedrooms feature the beautiful original hardwood floors and share a full hall bath. Another full bath, which equips the main home with 3 full bathrooms, finishes off the second level. A complete in-law/guest house with a private entrance and 2 bedrooms/2 full bathrooms is located above and connected by the two-car garage. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and sits adjacent to the family room with vaulted ceilings and a gas fireplace. Stairs lead to a large loft area, perfect as an office or an added bedroom. Off the family room sits a sunroom porch with access to a balcony with more of those fantastic views! This unit is fully separate from the main residence, allowing you and your guests complete privacy, plus new HVAC system (2022) and new water heater (2023) . Outdoors, enjoy serene evenings around the fire pit, listening to the sounds of nature and watching the variety of wildlife that abounds in this oasis. A heated kennel with an adjacent fenced-in area sits in the side yard and offers extra storage space. Entire roof replaced in 2020 and the 50-year warranty will transfer to the new owners. Opportunities like this do not come along often, so don't wait to schedule your showing!
