Surrounded by protected land on three sides, this quintessential farmhouse is beautifully sited on just over an acre of land with lawns, gardens and stone walls. The antique home was substantially renovated and expanded in 2000, beautifully blending its original character and charm with new improvements. The current owners have taken the property to the next level and the result is both unexpected and stunning. The house feels warm and inviting with its high ceilings, abundant natural light, wide pine floors, fireplaces, exposed beams and bricks combined with modern touches. Beyond the four-bedroom house with two-car garage, you'll find a picturesque barn with garage space below and a two-story one-bedroom post and beam guest cottage with farmers porch above - perfect for rental income, in-law, guests, office or studio. The bucolic setting offers privacy, beautiful gardens, outdoor entertaining spaces and room to play. All of this in the highly ranked Manchester Essex school system!
