Overview

Description

TWO charming homes! The main home was a beloved family retreat known as WIC - Window in the Chimney and an income producing Red Barn guest house for the last 42 years. It's time for the next owner to bring their vision while delighting in the charm, history and possibilities this property offers. Two distinct homes with their own personalities, water & septic systems situated on a beautiful 4 acre lot. The main home, a gothic revival cottage speaks to a rich history with its distinguishing architectural details. Highlights include the front entry with its gabled portico, the rich patina of wide plank wood floors, two natural stone fireplaces assuring both dining and living room ambiance. Several flex spaces add to the options of its generous 4 bedroom, 2 bath floor plan.

Supplements: in 1987 David Loveless designed the Red Barn as a 3 bedroom 2 bath guest home leaving its original rough hewn beams exposed as a highlight of its own history creating an artful, open design. Must see these homes in person. Call today for a showing.
