Down a winding gravel driveway, you come upon a gem of a setting and a completely remodeled house with new cement board siding, heat pump for central air and heat, electricity, plumbing, Anderson windows, generator hook -up, kitchen, and bathroom. The Delaware Canal is your front yard , and the acre of land is filled with specimen trees and shrubs to create a landscape of beauty and color. The partially covered front porch is 30’ x 8’ and there are two sections of railing handmade from natural wood branches. Step through the front door and the large great room – a living room/dining room – is the heart of this home. A woodburning stone fireplace and hearth is the focal point of this room that is enhanced by two light fixtures, recessed bullet lights, five windows, and solid wood paneling that has been painted. All the wood flooring throughout the house has been refinished. The kitchen has been meticulously designed with custom, inset cabinetry with soft close drawers, quartz counter tops, champagne color hardware, GE Café appliances, including a 5-burner electric range, a cedar ceiling, and tile floor. Along one side of the house are two bedrooms, each with a double closet. The primary bedroom has a pulldown ladder for attic access and lovely views of the property. The 3rd bedroom /den adjoining the second bedroom has built-ins, a closet, and can serve as a multi-purpose area to suit your needs. The bathroom has wainscoting, a vanity with marble top, cast iron tub with tiled walls, tile floor, a linen closet, and a stacked washer/dryer. Completing this exceptional home is a mudroom area with closet, door to the side patio, and a door to a storage area with the oil burner, for hot water, is backup for the new heat pump. This is a home with incredible ambiance, features, and the highest material and workmanship standards. Good things come in small packages and for this home where every inch is used for comfort and relaxation it is not a cliche. Whether a full-time residence or a second home for summers or weekends, this is a rare opportunity to own an extraordinary residence with all the amenities of a new, modern house that is surrounded by a natural setting of beauty and peacefulness. There is also a shed that has plenty of room for equipment and storage. Welcome to your truly “new” home |
