Honey stop the car!! This unbelievable charming Cotswold Cottage could easily be the subject of a Thomas Kincade painting. Martha Stewart would sigh with envy just driving up to the entry. Her jaw would hit the floor when she saw the huge country kitchen appointed with a 6 burner 2 oven Viking Range, state-of-the-art dishwasher & wine cooler. The kitchen is built around a huge hearth woodburning fireplace large enough to cook a full sized lamb. Personally, I have never witnessed anything like it. It looks like something out of a Charles Dickens Novel. The baths in this home have been totally remodeled but the look and feel of the original has been perfectly maintained. This home has a 2 car garage attached but has a third car detached stone outbuilding currently used as a garden shed. The sumptuous rear screened porch functions like a 3 season room. There are a total of 3 woodburning fireplaces and lots of storage. I will never have another listing like this one! Wonderful landscapin
