The residence offers a captivating glimpse into American history with its preserved architectural features and timeless character. 11 fireplaces grace the home, adding warmth and charm to nearly every room. Inside, you’ll find oversized rooms, soaring ceilings, abundant storage, and large windows filling spaces with natural light. Complementing the residence is a substantial three-story barn built in 2000, offering exceptional flexibility and potential.

The barn's 2nd and 3rd floor offer ideal potential for additional residential living space.
