Property Description
Through the front door, the surprise is the home's true proportions. What feels sprawling on approach will become a plan of perfect allowances. A formal living room opens off the foyer. Opposite the French doors, the verticals of the fireplace's paneled hearth complete the gridded symmetry between the hardwood floor below and the coffered beams above. A country kitchen with its own brick fireplace mirrors the living room's hearth from the other side of the foyer. The kitchen surrounds its central island with butcherblock counters and wood finished cabinetry as its dark plank ceiling obscures the proportions.
A step down from the kitchen, the crown jewel of the cottage: a brick floored den, its exposed beams and dark paneled walls driving the focus towards the bowed picture window that perfectly frames the front grounds into an oil painting of wooded greens brought to life by the gentle sway of a thousand branches. A wood stove insert sits before the heavy wood mantle on this third first-floor fireplace. Opposite the picture window, a door opens to the back porch.
From the foyer, the paneled wainscotting winds its way up the stairs beneath the watchful eye of the oeil-de-boeuf window. The curved handrail ends at the landing between the two bedrooms. To the right, the cottage's main quarters enjoys a fourth fireplace. Flanked by opposing windows, the room's shape is defined by the dormers and the curved ceiling transitions. Across the hall, a more modest version of the same charm. Between the two, the full bath, a perfectly preserved execution of streamlined-moderne design juxtaposes its mid-century tile work with its country cottage leaded window.
Stepping out onto the back porch, it's as if one finally begins to discover the property. Trails curl around and between curated planting beds. Ornamental trees stand above herb beds and perennials while shrubs and groundcovers create layers that will provide changing scenery regardless of season; all the while, this potager garden flatters the architecture as its changing palette and texture volleys with the home's mixed stone. A brick path along a wall of ferns leads around the side of the house to the front.
In front of the house, a trail to the left finds an arched footbridge that crosses the stream and joins the adjacent acreage. A clearing along the creek leads to a private meditation garden where opposing stone benches look upon a bed of ferns erupting from the center. More winding trails lead to similar corners and gullies. A path along the rear perimeter will find an old school bus, long intended for a guest house shrouded in the trees. The far corner hosts a deer-fenced vegetable garden and more private clearings. As the acreage opens up, the real surprise, a pole-built commercial grade workshop with parking for six vehicles, oversized garage door access, double-sided lean-to storage and wood stove hook-up, and its own driveway off Chapman Road. The 960 square feet of workspace is perfect for mechanical, woodworking, or art use. When done for the day, one can choose any combination of footpaths back to the house.
Don't miss the unique opportunity to experience the serene and the secluded where every square inch, both inside and out, has been attended with care and craftsmanship.
