The space This is a Farmhouse from the 1800s…In fact, it is the original property on a huge plot of land that has since been built on. While this property has been renovated over time, it is not new, and some of the original features were kept, specifically for the charm. For example, steam heat. You will hear it clanking at times. We love this about the house. We also want you to know about it in advance. The main floor features an entryway/mudroom with bench, seating and plenty of space and hooks for your belongings. The enclosed sunroom is a wonderful place to start and end your day, and features a wheeley fun basket full of games, as well as an electric fireplace and two very comfortable swivel chairs overlooking the property. The living room and dining room share a space. There is a large, smart TV, a desk for work, a formal dining area for six, a bar and a woodburning fireplace.
