This is a truly special piece of property that rests on over a half acre in Edgewood! This old-farmhouse was given a complete overhaul/re-build in 2016 and is perfect for modern day living, while maintaining pieces of the old-world flare, including raising the main level ceilings back to original farmhouse height of 12 ft on main level. The kitchen/den area are an absolute delight, with high-end appliances, soap stone countertops and marble island. You'll love the large fireplace that punctuates the den! The master suite is truly unique, with it's own sitting area and original brick hearth that divides it from the master bedroom! The bathroom fits perfectly with the home design. Upstairs you'll find tons of space and over-sized bedrooms and lots of closet storage. This home also features a fully equipped guest house above the garage. Extras: 200 year old beams in great room from the 1800s, screened porch, and the football field sized backyard is nearly impossible to find in Edgewood.
