This attention to detail is demonstrated by the addition of recessed lighting to mimic the flavor and feeling of the home that might have been experienced by the home's original owners. As you approach this huge two story stone structure, with its natural and architectural beauty, you are immediately reminded of the past and a time where true craftsmanship created a home. The winding stone walkway brings you to the side entrance of the house, and the door opens to a large hallway. To the right is a warm, comfortable, and sizeable living room ready for you to fill with glorious antiques, and the large brick fireplace will shed its warmth and hospitality to and guests alike. Original details in the room can make you almost picture George Washington sitting by the fireplace, in the glow of its lapping flames, writing an important speech. Experience the feeling of warmth from years of patina upon the wooden floors which is echoed with an equally interesting original wood ceiling and beams above. To the left of the hallway is the main portion of the home. Your eyes will immediately be drawn to the interior, original stone walls in the dining area and the French doors that lead out onto the patio. To the left of the dining area, is a slightly sunken family room with original doors and beams and a second brick fireplace that invites you into the room. The feeling is of warmth and hospitality. The kitchen, located to the right of the dining room, has all upscale appliances and is made for living and cooking, with plenty of open space between the areas for the cook to converse with their guests while preparing a meal. A hidden bathroom just off the hallway is conveniently situated for company's use. Upstairs is surprisingly open and inviting. The main bedroom has the unique Dutch feature of the original wide chimney running up one of the walls, which commences in the basement and flows through all floors, giving the home more of that 18th century feeling. The other two bedrooms are also large and have original features including large wooden beams. The upstairs bath is modern, but keeping in the decor and proper style of an antique home. All the mechanics are in perfect order and the furnace is the best on the market, with everything in top notch shape, all you need to do is sit back and enjoy this fine home.
