Description
Your once upon a time begins here. Step inside and a rich historical tale unfolds. Nestled on a hilltop overlooking the Croton Reservoir, is a magnificent Antique Colonial that found sanctuary here 88-years ago. Built in the late 1780s in Enfield, MA, it was one of several homes destined to be flooded by the state to make way for a reservoir. Saved by a master craftsman and a history-minded NYC family, it was dismantled, transported, and meticulously reassembled with sections from two other colonials, to its proud, present-day site. No other home exudes such beauty, grace and old-world charm. Set amidst a 1.248-acre oasis with seasonal water views, rolling lawns, pool, patio, barn, lush gardens and mature trees. With 3,200 sq ft and multiple inviting spaces, it lives larger than its 4-bed, 3.1 baths. Lovingly maintained from slate roof to original woodwork and floors, to Great Room, sunroom, period sleeping porch, writing room and maid's quarters. Unique - take your place in history!
