Step back in time with this historic Colonial home, built in 1770 by Judge Benjamin Chadbourne, and available to the public for the first time. This well-preserved masterpiece, nestled on a partially fenced lot, exudes charm and history at every turn. The exterior features a brick driveway leading to a barn with a 2-car garage, workshop, office, gardening area, and loft storage—complete with electricity. Inside, you'll find three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and versatile living spaces for both casual and formal gatherings. The kitchen, with its Viking gas range, connects to an informal dining area with a cozy gas stove and leads to a formal dining room. The first floor also includes laundry and two family rooms, each with the potential to restore one of the five fireplaces. Intricate original details like wood wainscoting, doors, and moldings highlight the craftsmanship of the era. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, a sitting area, and a full bathroom, with original wide pine flooring. The walk-up attic offers potential for more finished space. Modern comforts like Central A/C upstairs and an on-demand generator enhance the home's historic charm. Outside, enjoy the gardens with raised beds, a side patio with a retractable awning, and the serene ambiance of a property maintained for centuries. This home is not just a residence; it's a rare piece of history waiting for its next chapter. Showings start Saturday, August 24, at the open house from 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm.
