This unique 4 bedroom, stone home offers unparalleled history & craftsmanship, dating back to 1852, and has a one of a kind view! The original home has more than doubled in size over the years, now featuring over 2200 sq/ft of total living space, while carefully preserving the charm and rustic details from it's long history. The current owners have made this home their passion project for 42+ years with a focus on details too numerous to mention here. They even repurposed thousands of hand made bricks that once paved the front yard to create the beautiful, floor to ceiling fireplace standing in the living room today. Extensive renovations continued to take place from 2010 through 2014 throughout the entire home. The kitchen was updated with wide-plank flooring, custom cabinets, honed Virginia-mist granite counters, recessed lighting, and new appliances. The second floor of the original home was remodeled in 2014 while the bathrooms received updates in 2019. A 10'x26' maintenance free porch was constructed in 2017 to offer peaceful views of the rear garden and lawn. The materials, as always, were first rate and carefully chosen; the posts and trim are Western Red Cedar while the decking is color through PVC; the stone stairs leading to the front door date from the home's original construction in 1852. Various outbuildings once stood in this home's shadow including a blacksmith forge, carriage factory and large barn with remains still found. Conveniently located in the highly desirable Monkton area with top schools and premier shopping. You truly must see this one of a kind home to appreciate all of the details, history & charm!
