Gorgeous fall afternoons on the patio; cozy winter nights by a fireplace; spring days uncovering flora & fauna of the property; delightful summers lounging at the pool-this country enclave is ideal in all seasons. Originally built in 1880 as a colonial cottage with two-sided central fireplace, this farmhouse has been reimagined through the years and is set for today's lifestyle. The professional grade kitchen is warm & inviting, open to a sitting room for spectators but spacious enough to handle many sous chefs! With center island seating & a sunlit breakfast room, you may seldom want to leave this area. One look at the stunning dining room however, will change even your weekday routine! To one side of the kitchen area you will find a spacious family room with wet bar & another fireplace. On the other, a luxurious bedroom suite, complete with a separate sitting room & private entry, awaits. Upstairs, there are 4 bedrooms, plus an office, & laundry room. The primary suite is divine, with large closet area, fireplace, sparkling new bathroom & balcony overlooking the magnificent grounds. Stone patios offer seasons of outdoor living. Fields of play are off to one side, with steps leading past the gazebo to the pool on the other. The setting is surreal! A detached 2-car garage has a recently renovated 1 bedroom apartment above. A potting shed/barn offers further options. Peace & tranquility can be yours on this 2.76 acre treasure! Just minutes to the Merritt, I-84 or Route 7.
