This stunning property with 2 fully renovated historic homes is tucked just a half a mile away from the bucolic village of Nelson. Originally built in the1800’s, the fully solar powered barn with truly spectacular light and space, was impeccably restored in 1987. Hardwood and tile throughout, large windows allow for abundant natural light, exposed beams and ceiling and the indoor swing hanging 25 feet from the vaulted ceiling adds to the charm. A Jotul woodstove and Morso firepace insert create the ambiance. A delightful, open chef’s kitchen, a 1,000 square foot great room that houses both the living and dining area; entertaining spaces abound both indoor and out, including the spacious Ipe wood deck overlooking the pond. The 1790 guest home, one of the oldest in Nelson, is newly refurbished and offers fabulous one floor living; no steps to enter and a walk in shower. Excellent space for an in-law dwelling, rental property, home office or studio. A detached two car garage with ample storage space overhead, lovely perennial flower gardens and a quaint pond add to the tranquility.
