The second floor has 4 bedrooms, 2 are very spacious with distant water views and fireplaces. The lower level of the house is perfect for guests with its separate entrance, a large open space BR and a full bath. The property also includes a free-standing cottage that has been the workshop of a gifted art restorer. Notable features of the home include high end kitchen appliances, roped wood floors, original brass hardware, 4 working fireplaces,extraordinary natural light and a new 5 bedroom septic. Sited on just under one acre of land, there is beautiful outside space to enjoy. Living in this magnificent home is much more of an experience than just a summer get away.
