    What's special

    Gracious Erastus-Eunice Ferguson 1855 Homestead is a monument to classic New England gentility and design. All the components of mid 19th century charm prevail with all the contemporary comforts of today. As you enter the carriage side foyer, you gently descend to an inviting and spacious main gathering space warmed by the period hearth, hardwood floors, copious natural light, and the formal dining area. The kitchen features granite counters, white custom cabinets with wall ovens, range, and terracotta tiled floors that flow through the breakfast area to the glass atrium. The private office area offers a quiet space to work and relax over a good book with a private half bath. The family room is a comfortable escape and has the capacity and size for a first floor bedroom. The upper story features wide board floors, two lovely guest bedrooms, a full guest bath, a sewing room, and ample storage. The master suite boasts vaulted ceilings, sunny pallidum windows, sky lights, wall bank closets, and a fireplace. The marble counters and tiled open shower of the master bath is only matched by the custom vanities. Ample parking area with a detached 2 car garage/workshop This property has a very private setting provided by the roadside mature ewes and the additional .67 acre Rear lot which is also part of this offering. See additional tax card and description. Not offered in nearly 50 years, this home has been lovingly maintained and preserved for the next lucky owner.
