Character & Charm abounds in this nostalgic 1875 Colonial with extensive Saugatuck River frontage bordering Aquarian & Boy Scouts protected lands. Bonuses: Electrified Barn, Fishing Dock, 2-Story Playhouse w/Loft, Bridge across the river + Walk to Train Station to NYC. Moved back from its original location next to the road in the 1940s, it was magically blended w/the antique barn. Enter the double entry w/family room/home office off the initial entry boasting a brick fpl w/wood stove, bow window, random width floors, & built-in bookcases; it could also be a bedroom w/full bath. Continue thru the extended entry & down steps into the barn section w/living rm w/stone fpl & wood stove open to the large dining rm, both w/exposed beams & cherry floors. Beyond the dining rm is the sunrm/TV rm w/glass doors out to the fenced back yard. Thru French doors off the dining rm is the spacious chef's kitchen with vaulted beamed ceiling w/skylight & sunny bow window eating area. Staircase to above the living rm leads you to the primary bedrm with a sleeping/sun porch, another large bedrm and a remodeled full hall bath. Another staircase leads you to above the double entry with 2 additional bedrms with a Jack & Jill tub bath. A small office off the interior entry opens up to a large laundry/work room with access to a private deck with hot tub. PLEASE NOTE 70% OF THE FURNITURE IS FOR SALE. BASEMENT HAS NEVER FLOODED IN PAST 32 YEARS; only some seepage. BUY A PIECE OF HISTORY!
Please note although there is a Ring doorbell, it is battery operated and is not in use currently. Much of the antique furniture can be purchased; prices available upon request. The oil consumption is only 725 gallons for the year with wood stoves supplementing the heat. Note there are 3 attics with pull down stairs: one in each bedroom wing and one in the garage. The attics above the primary bedroom wing and garage are fully floored for excellent storage. Septic system all new in 2006, oil burner is 4 years young
