Property details

About 1254 River Rd

WELCOME TO AN OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A BIT OF HISTORY. This stone farmhouse was originally built back in the 1700s. Many upgrades such a Professional grade Thermador Oven compliments the remodeled kitchen. Granite counter tops and a tasteful backsplash elevate the cooking experience along with plenty of beautiful lighting and an 1800s working Peer Dockash cook stove. Above the kitchen there is a spiral staircase leading to a cozy den/office/sewing room/4th bedroom with a working stone fireplace and many windows for seeing some great views. The living room contains numerous floor to ceiling, built-in bookshelves along with your very own wooden, rolling library ladder. A Cathedral ceiling is a focal point in the dining room which is a newer addition that has tons of windows for natural lighting, matching cedar coat closets and beautiful French doors for added light. The upstairs has 3 bedrooms with deep window sills great for sitting in with a good book and admiring nature outside. There is a huge attic with electric that could be converted into additional living space. The house has a lovely covered front porch where you can sit with a cup of coffee watching the neighborhood horses graze in the fields. There are 2 covered side porches and an open 2-car garage with a full work area in the back. A stream runs alongside the driveway and there are several trees lining the property. And there is plenty of room for outdoor activities on over 5 acres of wooded land!
