Description

This classic colonial farmhouse, built by Farmer Bloomer in 1876, now surrounded by mature perennial gardens and giant trees, is a well-maintained home on 2 acres awaiting a new owner to appreciate its history and original charm. The current owners--both artists and master gardeners--have cultivated extraordinary and colorful gardens that bloom for three seasons and feed the colorful songbirds in winter. An enclosed "secret garden" on the south side of the house provides a perfect refuge for meditation...This classic colonial farmhouse, built by Farmer Bloomer in 1876, now surrounded by mature perennial gardens and giant trees, is a well-maintained home on 2 acres awaiting a new owner to appreciate its history and original charm. The current owners--both artists and master gardeners--have cultivated extraordinary and colorful gardens that bloom for three seasons and feed the colorful songbirds in winter. An enclosed "secret garden" on the south side of the house provides a perfect refuge for meditation and relaxation. The center-hall main floor of the farmhouse features French doors leading to a large LR with brick wood-burning fireplace, formal DR, and vaulted-ceiling country kitchen with huge pantry and W/D. Original details such as stairway wainscoting, hardwood floors, crystal doorknobs, along with artistic touches (hand-painted kitchen floors, French door custom closet, decoupage bathroom wallpaper) lend a light and airy sense of country-cottage warmth. Four bedrooms--including a 3rd floor ensuite primary BR, currently used as an artist's studio--and two full baths round out the upper levels. A two-car attached garage with large attic and full basement (with potential for a finished workshop or rec-room area) contributes plenty of space for extra storage. The beautiful established organic garden features a rich array of perennials and incorporates a vast array of native plants. It is framed by mature trees for a serene, natural setting. A gardener's paradise!
