For Sale in New Milford, CT
Perfectly Imperfect Updated Antique Gem on 3.3 bucolic acres surrounded by protected land, where many birds and other wildlife can be enjoyed. This historic home has so many charms, including exposed beams and original chestnut flooring. It has been lovingly updated and maintained without visibly changing its historic nature. One owner is a professional landscape architect and has filled the property with many native trees and plants and created a pastoral butterfly meadow where year after year monarchs have returned. Two vegetable gardens, as well as, a fruit orchard with apples, pears, peaches, and plums. Blueberries, raspberries, and concord grapes keep the owners fed from early Spring until late fall. A small bluestone patio under a wisteria and dutchmen's pipe-planted arbor between the house and a charming Summer House create great shade and outdoor seating. Three outbuildings sit on the property: a small barn/garage, a chicken coop (without chickens), and a Summer House with a new cedar roof and bluestone flooring; great to enjoy and entertain in during the summer months. The house itself currently consists of three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms. The first floor contains a living room with original exposed timbers, an 18th century Rumford fireplace along with bread oven, wide-board oak flooring, an open cathedral ceiling and loft area. The spacious dining room comes with a corner cupboard. The updated cozy eat-in kitchen has a Bertazzoni dual fuel range, Bosch dishwasher, and Beko refrigerator, and a small wood stove to keep things extra cozy during the cold winter months. There is also a library/tv room with a large walk-in closet, which can easily be used as a first-floor bedroom. A full bath with tub and a half bath completes the first floor. Upstairs there are three bedrooms: a main bedroom with a walk-in outfitted closet and two additional bedrooms, and an updated bathroom with shower stall. All of these features give the ease of modern convenience while keeping the cherished historic beauty.
