Steeped in American history, Burn Brae Cottage is a rare and enchanting estate. Built circa 1750 and gifted by Adonijah Bidwell to his daughter Theodosia in 1793 on her wedding day, this beautifully updated home sits on just under 7 sunny acres just one mile from Lake Garfield in low-tax Monterey. The 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence features gorgeous wood floors, abundant natural light, and nearly all new windows. The main level offers a kitchen with a 6-burner Bertazzoni range and stainless appliances, a family room with two wood-burning fireplaces, and two enclosed porches (one heated). Outside enjoy pastoral views and open land, a babbling brook, a new 14.7kW solar array with whole-house battery backup, a 3-car garage with EV charger, and a recently built storage shed.
