About This Home

As of June 2022

This beckoning early 19th century center hall colonial resides at the site of an old grist mill. Located on East Creek where the steady flow of water once turned the stone grinding the grains into meal and flour. Though the mill is no longer there, the sellers enjoy a great view of the free flowing waterfall as it passes by the inviting park like setting. The soothing sound variations of both a peaceful steady trickle and the roar after a rainstorm waft up to the house to further delight your senses. The home has an attractive field stone foundation, approx 8.5 foot ceilings throughout and a classic center hall on both the first and second floors. It envelops all the classic character you would expect, though renovated, much of the original woodwork and moldings remain. The outbuildings are the dream of any hobbyist/small farmer with ample heatable space, work benches, and storage. A good portion of the acreage is fenced with high tensile for animals. The scenery is beautiful, unveiling both pastoral and Adirondack views with lovely sunsets. Just a short drive to Lake Champlain and historic Mount Independence, as well as other nearby smaller lakes. This grace filled property is ready for new owners.
