Built in 1686, this first-period antique was built by the Choate family, and many original features remain. The house has been lovingly renovated by area experts to blend historical detail with modern luxuries for comfortable family living. The house points south, and looks out over a large pond that teems year-round with wildlife including river otters, frogs, fish, and migratory birds. Substantial renovations include but are not limited to a recently renovated kitchen with new appliances, soapstone countertops, and wood floors, a new roof, 4 fully renovated bathrooms, 4 bedrooms, and an additional guest room on 1st fl. Seven fireplaces lend an antique air to the space, and two new additions coalesce the original antique framework with warm and comfortable modern-living needs. Included on the property is a fantastic barn ~4,000+sq ft with large workshop. It could be configured for art studio, office, garage, or agricultural barn. Three large bays can accommodate three cars.
