Acorn Cottage is approx. 75 years old and sits on approx. 5 acres nestled among 100 acre plus estates. Most of the front facade is stone and the new addition of synthetic stucco. The drive winds through stately oak trees to a walk lined by large boxwoods. The original house has old pine floors, old pine doors & doorway jams, fireplace surround and the ceiling beams came from the old manor house built at the turn of the 20th Century. The original section had 2 bdrms & 2 baths. The present owner added 2 addt'l bdrms & a 2nd floor loft bdrm or playroom w/ a jack & jill bath. The home oozes country charm. The moment you enter the foyer & step into the living area w/ views of open pasture & rolling hills. Acorn Cottage is surrounded by multi-million dollar properties & is truly a one of a kind.
