    Huge detached outbuildingAmple storageSeven spacious bedroomsButler serving areaSummer kitchen
    Rarest of Rare opportunities to own a true piece of history. This home has been documented back to circa 1770 sitting on 13+ acres. A place where revolutionary soldiers have found their final resting place along with others in the private cemetery overlooking several hundred feet of water frontage. There is boat access from three docks and plenty areas for fishing and bird watching. This is a true once in a lifetime gem. A book has been written about it, and a historian has searched its history and provided incredible documentation for the new owners. The first floor features two grand living areas, a formal dining room with extraordinary Baccarat crystal chandelier. A kitchen that is fitting for the times featuring a chef stove and restaurant quality hood. A Butler serving area along with a Butler staircase to each level. Relaxing heated Florida room at the rear house overlooking the park like backyard and cozy rear patio featuring a brick half wall and a roof to keep you shaded. Acres of land and mature trees make you feel like you’re in Central Park. The huge, detached outbuilding provides many opportunities for woodworking, antique storage or restoration. There are several other buildings available for sitting, relaxing or cool storage for the vegetables that you grow on the property. Relax in the rear yard and view the vast, waterfront or stroll along the private road to three docks and fishing areas. On the second and third floors there are seven spacious bedrooms, three full baths along with ample storage. The attic is on the fourth floor which leads to the grand finale, the widows peak, giving the most spectacular views in the town. There is a full basement that features two fireplaces and additional storage or restore the summer kitchen. You must see as words cannot explain the true gem this home truly is!
