Property details
About 4945 S Rd
The John Arnold Cottle House is a landmark residence in the heart of South Woodstock, a rare blend of village convenience and country living. Built in 1811 by one of the area's earliest settlers, this stately Federal-style brick home has been thoughtfully restored to honor its historic charm while integrating modern comforts. Set on 2.7 acres, the property features 450 ft of frontage on Kedron Brook, along with a firepit, a barn, and a river meadow. The barn—currently used for storage—could easily be converted to accommodate a couple of horses or sheep. The 3-bedroom main house has elegant 12-over-12 windows, high ceilings, and beautifully preserved period details, including a 2nd-floor ballroom with a coved ceiling and fiddler’s stage—a nod to its past as a lively gathering space. The newer addition overlooking the brook has a magnificent great room with 17' cathedral ceilings and a gourmet kitchen and wood burning brick fireplace. The renovated Kingsley Barn guest house offers 2 bedrooms, a loft, and a deck overlooking the brook. Below there is a heated workshop, ideal for puttering and creating. A timber bridge spans the waterway, connecting the property’s field, barn and trails. With direct access to the Upwey Trail system and equestrian paths leading to the Green Mountain Horse Association, this property is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts. Located along South Road in the South Woodstock Historic District.
