While seemingly the world has lost touch…here is a sanctuary of calm, passion and clarity. No cheap builders skimping here. This property harkens back to old world principles of honest craftsmanship, respect for the land and working with local resources. Roadside perspective presumes a 1700’s farmstead, rejuvenated. The reality is a carefully crafted 20 year old colonial Saltbox and large barn, an unassuming gem. A brook tumbles through a sweeping pasture all enclosed in dry laid “Stone Walls by George” evoking a timeless pastoral sentiment. Tucked away on 91 serene acres along a quiet dead-end road, this exquisite timber-frame home is a rare blend of historic practicality and modern convenience. The exterior details of this 2332 s.f. home bespeaks of a carefully curated structure: perfectly laid stone walls; granite slab steps; brick walks; wood-shingled roof; beaded clapboard siding and stone facade fabricated with both aesthetic and utilitarian intent. The experience grows richer upon entering the home. The warmth, artistry, comfort and handiwork takes hold of one’s senses, intuitively feeling this is “Home.” A 1790’s styled Rumford fireplace anchors the living room, an inviting space to gather. Every detail is designed for function yet has a soul of form, simple while also elegant. As if sprouting from the earth itself, the post and beam structure foretells centuries of endurance to come. Locally sourced Portland, CT stone adds warm the with its earth tone texture.
