A Rare Country Retreat Where Nature, Water and History Converge. Antique Greek Revival home set on 8 bucolic acres at the end of a quiet dead-end road, this enchanting country retreat offers an extraordinary sense of privacy, tranquility, and connection to nature. Surrounded by beautifully established gardens, mature trees, stone walls, a meandering river, and a picturesque mill pond, the property unfolds as a private sanctuary where every season brings a new perspective.The classic residence embraces its setting with a gracious wraparound porch overlooking the grounds, creating idyllic spaces for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or lingering evenings accompanied by the gentle sounds of the river and surrounding wildlife. Inside, the home is warm and inviting, with exposed wood beams, rich architectural details, and multiple wood-burning stoves that lend a wonderfully cozy atmosphere throughout.The heart of the home is an inviting chef’s kitchen, complemented by a charming dining room with a brick fireplace and an abundance of windows framing the surrounding landscape. A beautiful screened porch extends the living space outdoors and provides an idyllic setting for summer dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the changing light through the trees.Beyond the house, the grounds are a destination unto themselves. Meandering gardens, mature plantings, specimen trees, natural stonework, and expansive lawns create a landscape that feels both cultivated and wonderfully organic. A saltwater pool and pool house offer a private setting for summer days, while a detached artist’s studio provides a separate space for creative pursuits, work, or quiet reflection.This is a property designed not simply for living, but for slowing down and appreciating the landscape—a rare combination of country character, abundant water, exceptional gardens, and thoughtfully created spaces for gathering, creating, and enjoying the serenity of nature.
