About This Home

As of January 2020

It's been a long day. You approach the carefully stacked stone wall and turn into your belgian block drive perfectly lined with mature trees, catch a glimpse of home, and you exhale. Through the front porch to your entrance foyer with beautiful chestnut floors you are drawn into the living room with roaring stone fireplace. To the left is your cozy family room - what will you watch tonight? The warmth of restored beams and gorgeous floors surround bright open spaces perfect for today's lifestyle. A glimpse out to the stone patio with impressive pergola and it is time to relax. Into the large sunny country kitchen, toes warmed by the radiant heated floors, to grab a drink you step outside. Whatever the season - sit around the fire pit with friends, gather vegetables from the garden, a game of soccer out on the 2 level acres, or delicious blueberries in season. How about a twilight soak in the hot tub? Or simply enjoying the sound of the frogs on warm summer nights, the smell and sight of the lush perennial gardens and the peaceful view of the neighbor's pond. This is truly a special place to call home that has been lovingly improved by the current owner for the past 26 years. Master bedroom has soaring ceilings, large walk-in closet and en-suite bath. Two further bedrooms on the second floor, each with a great loft share a hall bath. Guest room on the main floor with access to a full bath. The definition of perfection.
