This 1700s farmhouse, situated on 4.6 acres (with hunting rights on an additional 21.6 acres) and surrounded by the preserved woods of Welkinweir, is overflowing with natural and historic beauty. Your approach to the house leads you over the babbling Beaver Run Creek. Begin your tour by entering the dining room in the original section of the house, where a massive stone fireplace stands ready to warm you on cold days, and gleaming wide-plank wood floors and exposed stone walls add to the inviting ambience. To your left is a formal living room, part of the 1800s addition, which boasts another fireplace, wood floors, built-ins, wood ceiling beams, and a full bathroom with tiled floor and tub/shower combo. Off of the dining room is the bright and cheery eat-in kitchen with tile floors, recessed lighting, electric cooking, a large stainless double sink, and a built-in hutch and pantry, flanked by a convenient laundry room. From the kitchen, step into the breathtaking sun-drenched family room's grand display of windows which offer a spectacular view of the front yard while rustic details like exposed stone walls and wide-plank wood floors preserve the property's historic charm. The skylights in the vaulted ceiling bring in even more natural sunlight making this room the natural gathering place. Walk out to a charming stone patio with a firepit and enjoy the shade of mature trees. The historic charm continues throughout the second floor where the same stunning wide-plank wood floors and built-ins run through the den and second bedroom with decorative fireplace. The modern master bedroom is expansive, and boasts vaulted ceilings, recessed lighting, and an ample walk-in closet. A Betsy Ross staircase leads to the fully finished attic room that's perfect for an office or a third bedroom. The large barn allows parking for two cars plus room for a workshop, and has steps to a fully finished attic for plenty of storage. Ready to relieve the stress of the day?
