About This Home
Nestled in the heart of historic Swansea Village, this beautifully preserved Dutch Colonial farmhouse blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Built in 1907 and set behind a picket fence, the home is surrounded by a classic stone wall and perennial gardens. A stunning mahogany farmer’s porch welcomes you, while an expansive deck and screened porch provide ideal spaces for year-round enjoyment. The oversized barn and a greenhouse with running water add functionality and charm to this unique property. Inside, period details abound—from the tin ceiling in the updated kitchen to the cozy dining room with fireplace and linen built-ins. Solid wood doors with intricate hardware and original woodwork showcase the home’s craftsmanship. The first-floor mudroom doubles as a laundry room, offering a practical space to land at the end of the day. Upstairs, a split staircase provides privacy to the primary bedroom, while 3 additional bedrooms and full bath complete the second floor.
