Imagine living in a 150 year old Queen Anne Victorian with six bedrooms, surrounded by beautiful historic edifices and lawns, sublime scenery in every direction. This is real and available on Quaker Hill in Pawling. The beautifully maintained home retains many of its original architectural details. Perhaps the surroundings add to the ineffable welcoming feeling one gets stepping up to the broad porch. Mizzentop was the name given to this area of Quaker Hill by the Union Navy's Rear Admiral Worden--comparing the view to that from the mid-ship high mast. The legendary turn-of-the-century Mizzentop Hotel once stood directly across the street. Although this home was built in 1870, it has been lived in continuously and updated and maintained to preserve its character with modern conveniences. Enter across the wide porch to a side hall with period, solid wood staircase on the right and a living room with a fireplace looking out across the porch to the left. At the end of the hall is the formal dining room, opposite a family room with fireplace, full bath and an antique door to the porch. Beyond and open to the dining room is the kitchen with a long butcher block and gas range with its own doorway to the wraparound porch. A pantry/hallway leads from the left of the dining room to the former attached garage that has been converted to a rustic looking cedar paneled sunken hot tub and spa room. Built into the staircase a powder room which completes the first floor. The side hall staircase from the entrance hall leads to the second and third floors, each with three bedrooms, with two full baths on the second floor and one half bath on the third floor. The master bedroom at the front of the house on the second floor features a fireplace and separate bath entrance. The adjoining bedroom on the second floor also has a fireplace. The three third floor bedrooms are of similar dimensions with dormer ceilings. The entire home is floored with wide plank pine. Rarely do homes of this character and location become available. Home is 2,542 finished square feet over 3 floors with an additional 330 square feet for the full bath, pantry and spa room. 7 minutes to the Village of Pawling with fine restaurants, shopping, pubs and a Metro North station for easy NYC trips.
