Welcome to the Jonathan Wilder House - considered one of the oldest and best documented houses in Sterling. This 1738 Georgian Gem needs some buffing to bring it back to full shine. Warm wide pine floors throughout, nine fireplaces and an open 1st level plan make for casual modern living surrounded by fine historic detail. This eleven room, four+ bedroom two and a half bath plan allows for multiple living options. The large level lot offers privacy, mature plantings, heated in-ground pool and a frog pond. Spend evenings on the patio or the screened porch overlooking your shaded landscape. Mechanical systems recently updated, two -car attached garage separate shop shed and multi-level barn add functional utility and workshops for animals or the home hobbyist. Rustic stone walls grace the property on three sides. Set on a quiet secondary road yet only minutes to highway access.
