Entertain your friends and family around a large antique French dining table that comfortably seats ten, or relax with friends in the cathedral-ceilinged living room. The loft features a HDTV and comfortable seating for streaming enjoyment. You can also spend time outdoors on the large stone patio and outdoor kitchen with a refrigerator, grill, and seating under cover. Other amenities include a laundry room with a large, efficient washer/dryer, two fireplaces with dry wood provided, and a detached garage. Plus, the original barns were built using American Chestnut beams, dating them perhaps to the late 1800s. Please note that due to the open riser loft stairs and railing, this home is not recommended for guests with small children, and pets are not permitted. When you're ready to explore the area, there's plenty to see and do. Enjoy delicious sandwiches and home-baked goods at Coffee's Market or yummy diner fare at The Hangry Goose.
