This stately home was extraordinarily well-constructed by master craftsmen to stand the test of time and it certainly has for the past 221 years while becoming even more beautiful and refined. The Federal-style home opens to a stunning foyer featuring 12 ft. soaring ceilings and an elegant handcrafted stair case with original poplar steps and oak railing. Original 1” thick tongue-in-groove ash floors grace the interior which was fully renovated by Tallman Enterprises and includes: Primary-on-the-main with luxurious ensuite.
