"Tilling Cottage" in the historic district of Dorset Village is rich in tradition. Built in 1920 by a couple who were both artists, it enjoys wonderful northern natural light. Their artistic appreciation is reflected in the unique design of the original garage doors that are still in place and the unique size of the roof slates, both of which are unique in the village. Current additions to the house also reflect an awareness of design details and include incorporating glass panes from a dismantled Dorset West Road greenhouse for interior French doors into the library/great-room. Local stone was incorporated into the fireplace, local craftsmen designed the metal work, to create this one-of-a kind space. There is also a custom designed wine room in the garage that is a must see. Along with the common living areas, the master suite is on the main level, two bedrooms and a bonus room complete the second level. The yard is thoughtfully landscaped, has English style flower gardens and includes a "Dining Shed" that is a must see- with its painted floors, creative lighting and music equipment. All systems have been upgraded and include a whole house generator. Add to all of this the village location with its short walk to the up-scale country store, inns, library and theater-you'll never want to leave. ! Showings by appointment only.
