Historic John Wade House (c. 1784). Listed on National Register of Historic Places. Rare opportunity to own a noted property of unique quality where old and new blend seamlessly to create a home of distinct appeal. Beautifully set back from the street in an attractive setting that offers brick patio & stone seating area, plus side yard & driveway. Step into lovely foyer, carefully remodeled to preserve the simple elegance of eras past. Generously sized rooms, surprising for that era: gracious LR with fireplace & doors leading to patio; formal DR with chair rail; sunny EIK with pantry; 3 season sunporch. Nice flow throughout with hallways that gently curve & boast built-in shelves & nooks & crannies optimized with closets for storage. Step up the curved staircase to 2 BRs with built-in drawers & shelves, plus full mod bath. Hardwood floors, exposed beams, distinctive molding, chair rail, etc. throughout. Original attached barn.
