About This Home

As of May 2020

Feel like you've stepped back in time over 200 years ago! This unique stone and stucco antique is waiting to be brought back to its original grandeur. With 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths, the spacious third floor walk-up attic with two staircases can also provide space for additional bedrooms, an artist's studio, craft room, play area or whatever your needs may be. Come in from the amazing wraparound porch and enter into the foyer with French doors to large living room with lots of windows and a wood stove to keep warm by. The dining room is perfect for accommodating a large crowd and the eat-in-kitchen with vaulted beamed ceiling, old farm-style sink and gas stove for cooking looks out onto the beautiful grounds in back. Cozy up to the stone fireplace in the study on those cold winter nights. Hardwood floors are in every room on all three levels. Full dry basement and 200 amp electrical service. The property with stream in back abuts 100 acres of Bethel Land Trust with ponds and trails and not far from Huntington State Park. An old stone well and gazebo add to the charm in imagining what it felt like to live back in the early 1800's. A rare opportunity to own this one-of-a-kind home. Bring your imagination and turn this home into a gem again!
