About this home
Step inside this remarkable Dutch Revival home, situated on a picturesque half-acre lot and originally built in the late 1800s for the town physician, Dr. J.C. David. Designed by renowned Swedish-American architect and contractor C.A. Swanson, this one-of-a-kind property is filled with timeless craftsmanship and architectural details rarely found today. From the moment you enter, you're welcomed by a grand foyer featuring a stunning marble fireplace, an elegant staircase, and beautiful leaded and stained-glass windows. Original quarter-sawn red oak and white pine floors, intricate woodwork, and gorgeous chandeliers showcase the home's historic character throughout. The main floor offers a beautifully renovated full bathroom that blends modern updates with the home's original charm. The breathtaking library is a true showpiece, complete with custom built-in bookshelves, a fireplace, and a large pocket door. A spacious main-floor bedroom provides the perfect space for a home office, guest room, or additional living area. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room, creating a functional layout ideal for everyday living and entertaining. At the rear of the home, an inviting sitting room with its own fireplace adds even more warmth and character. Upstairs, you'll find five generously sized bedrooms, several adorned with stunning vintage wallpaper, along with a charming full bathroom featuring functional built-in cabinetry that complements the home's historic appeal. Outside, the beautifully maintained gardens and mature grapevines create the feeling of a private vineyard-the current owners have even made homemade grape jelly from the vines. The reinforced barn offers endless possibilities for storage, a workshop, hobby space, or vehicle parking. Thoughtfully maintained and updated, recent improvements include commercial-grade B-PEX plumbing throughout much of the home, updated basement windows, repaired front gutters, regularly serviced furnace, new sanitary lines to the kitchen and main-floor bathroom, brand-new washer and dryer, updated stove, oven, and dishwasher, a new kitchen faucet, new basement lighting, updated attic fan & outlet, and a recently swept chimney in the back room fireplace. This extraordinary home offers the perfect balance of historic elegance, thoughtful updates, and timeless craftsmanship; an opportunity to own a true piece of local history....
