Economical heating systems, a drilled well, and a septic system ensure modern convenience. Outside, the property continues to impress with a large in-ground heated and fenced swimming pool, perfect for summer enjoyment. The former three-stall horse barn with a one-acre pasture, a bunkhouse, and unlimited gardening and landscaping possibilities add to the property’s charm. There is also a sizeable level playing field, ideal for recreation. Enhancing the property’s historic appeal are several original sea ship and stained-glass windows, and a classic white board and spindle wooden fence bordering two sides of the estate.
