About This Home

As of July 2020

Step Back 279 Years, when George Washington was only 8 years old. The historic Bailey house was built for comfort and enduring beauty, reflecting a time when American craftsmen did not know the meaning of compromise. This vintage home offers the charm of yesteryear with a perfect blend of modern conveniences. You'll be smitten by the beauty of the wide-board floors, five fireplaces to mimic the warmth of the day and exposed beams offering a dramatic sense of strength and belonging. The backyard is picturesque and private with stone patio and koi pond, providing the perfect place to unwind. Recent updates include new furnace, water heater, Nest thermostats, electric, well pump, holding tank and more, making it easy for you to continue the legacy of love!
