Description
Step into a piece of history with this charming cottage nestled in the heart of old town within walking distance of shops, restaurants and some of the region's favorite wineries. Built in the late 1800's, the home's character was enriched over the next century with exquisite botanical paintings, applied to both interior and exterior surfaces-artistic touches that remain to this day. Inside, the home's cozy living room is a sanctuary of calm with views over lush gardens that stretch more than 200 feet from front to back. Decoupaged cabinets and an antique island in the nearby kitchen add to the French country style, a look that continues past an expansive office/family room into three charming bedrooms-a luxurious 26 feet Primary retreat with stenciled walls and a cedar-cocooned front bay window; a second bedroom with ensuite bath and Tiffany-style light fixtures; and the third, an homage to Paris with Toile de Jouy curtains and pillows. This home's focal point though has to be its magnificent grounds. Under the shade of majestic trees its free standing deck is surrounded by beautifully lit perennial gardens bursting with peonies, hydrangeas, climbing roses and wisteria. Fruits and vegetables abound. This cottage is more than just a home. It's a story waiting to be continued. Whether you're looking for a permanent residence, a vacation hideaway or a unique investment opportunity, prepare to fall in love with a property that promises to enchant and inspire for generations to come.
