A Delightful Journey Back in Time! This gorgeous 1833 Greek Revival was built by well-known craftsman, Aaron Howland, and is located at the head of the town common- a prime location for anyone wanting to immerse themselves in the life of a bucolic New England village. A church's carillon, artisan shops, a quaint local café and Burdick's restaurant are all within a short stroll. This transformative home features a side hall entry, pedimented gable end on the street, and Palladian window. As you enter, the charm of the past is still present with many of the home's original features. The front hall view through the cheery formal dining room and updated kitchen beyond steals the show and includes an original working Rumford fireplace w/crane and 2 side ovens. The front parlor is steps to the right of the entry foyer with another fireplace taking center stage & south facing windows with inside folding shutters; sliding doors with a fret plaque above divide the front and rear parlors. The hand-crafted stairway to the second-floor landing is surrounded by three light & airy bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths. The 4th bedroom is one of two bonus rooms connecting the upstairs with a 2nd stairway offering separate access to a studio, aux pair or guest suite w/enclosed sleeping porch. A heated workroom joins the main house to the garage/barn. Located in the commercial zone, this historic residence embodies the spirit of the past, yet delivers a present-day lifestyle with endless opportunities.
