Property Description
Own a part of Newtown's history! Built in 1772, this beautifully restored 18th Century farmhouse has been home to just two families over the past 150 years. There are five rooms upstairs, including one with a fireplace, that can be used for bedrooms, office space, a library, or a nursery. Downstairs boasts three more fireplaces! The eat-in kitchen is complete with custom kitchen cabinetry built with wood original to the house and an extra large walk-in pantry. There are numerous built-in bookcases and closets throughout the home and a secret crawlspace area that is rumored to have been used as part of the Underground Railroad. The large walk-up attic is home to a colonial loom with original threads still on the loom. The walk-through basement has plenty of storage room and workspace for all your weekend projects. Two staircases lead from the main floor to the rooms upstairs. Outside you'll find a magnificent backyard with maple trees and four large barns plus the original outhouse (that has been converted to a storage shed). There is an existing vegetable garden waiting for you to plant this spring! The rock walls are natural pasture boundaries and you'll even find an original carriage step and hitching post right in the front yard! Bring your boat or love of the outdoors as this property is close to the popular Eichler's Cove and Treadwell Park.
