Experience a remarkable piece of history in this one-of-a-kind home, originally the District 4 Schoolhouse c.1841. It operated as a school until 1932, then as a community space, before being transformed into a residence in 1987. Timeless details remain: original wainscoting, chalkboards, stained-glass windows, main staircase, exit signs, bell tower, drinking fountain, vintage sink in the school's kitchen in the basement, swing set, and merry-go-round. The first-floor classroom is now an open kitchen, dining, and living area, plus a bedroom with walk-in closet, half bath, shower room, large entrance mudroom, and a storage room. Upstairs offers a second kitchen, family room, two bedrooms, bath, and the main bedroom, which served as the stage, with access to the changing locker room. A solar array, gardens, a grapevine canopy covering the patio, and a fire pit accent the spacious yard. Right next to the Four Mile Brook, across from the Field Library, and a minute walk to the farm stands.
