About This Home

This unique property offers a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath main home along with a completely renovated 2-bedroom in-law apartment, making it perfect for guests or rental potential. Nestled in a peaceful setting just off a quiet country road, this beautifully maintained antique home is ideal as a year-round residence or a relaxing weekend retreat. Though it feels a world away, it's conveniently located just minutes from I-95 and the train to Boston and New York. The main house features single-level living with two ensuite bedrooms on the first floor, a third bedroom perfect for guests or a home office, a bright sunroom, and a cozy library or sitting room with a fireplace. The open-concept family and dining room blend the charm of antique design with comfortable everyday living. A large slate patio, accessible from the kitchen, dining room, and primary bedroom, wraps around the back of the home and opens to a beautifully landscaped yard with a perfect mix of sun and shade. Just a stone's throw from the 8 Mile River, the sound of flowing water adds to the sense of calm while you enjoy the stunning perennial gardens. Separated from the main home by a two-car attached garage, the fully updated in-law apartment offers privacy and flexibility with two additional bedrooms and its own living space. This is a property that should not be missed!
