This iconic Yankee Barn Carriage House is situated on over five spectacular acres in Olde Farms. Known as the Bennington Carriage House, this post and beam beauty was custom built by one of the original owners of YBH. Superior craftsmanship can be seen throughout the main level. From the Douglas fir post and beam frame to the Venetian plastered walls, the main living space is warm and inviting. Located on the second floor, this space includes an open concept living room, dining area and kitchen, as well as a 3/4 bath and cozy bedroom. Vaulted ceilings, large Anderson windows and rich Douglas fir wood floors add to the charm of this space. The first level was transformed from a three-bay garage into useable living space including a bedroom, tv/rec room, 3/4 bathroom and laundry closet. The garage doors remain just in case the new owners choose to convert this flexible space back into garage space or the garage doors could be removed and large windows could make this a true living area. Radiant heat, ac and a whole house generator add to the comfort of this home. There is even a 4.5 bedroom septic system! Outside, you will find a charming stone patio with room for gathering and grilling. A footbridge over a babbling brook leads through a quiet Zen garden to a 225 sq ft Japanese Tea House. This post and beam gem with mahogany floors, sliding glass doors and electricity is sure to delight!
