Have you ever wanted to step into a postcard? Now you can! This stunning 1800's Gothic Revival Stone Farmhouse belongs in a magazine. Nestled on just over 3 acres with a detached 566 square foot guest cottage, a pond with swans, and a gazebo, this home truly has it all. Lovingly maintained and preserved, this property features a parklike setting with large green lawns and a tree lined driveway. As you enter the 5 bedroom main house you are immediately impressed by the original hardwood floors. The parlor which makes a perfect home office and the large formal dining room flank the foyer. As you continue forward, you will pass through the breakfast room and enter the kitchen. The kitchen really brings you back in time with recreated glass door cabinetry, exposed beams, and a large repurposed 19th century general store grain bin as an island for preparing meals. You still have modern amenities such as granite countertops and a built-in refrigerator. There is a mudroom with laundry conveniently adjacent. The expansive family room features a stone walk-in fireplace with a bake oven and welcome window, making this room perfect for entertaining large parties and all types of holidays. A large full bathroom completes the main level. Heading upstairs, you will find a spacious owner's bedroom with ample closet space and a rooftop deck. There are 4 secondary bedrooms that can be used for anything from an office to a dressing room. A generously-sized spa-like renovated bathroom serves this floor. There is a third floor attic, with a cedar closet, perfect for storage or can be finished for additional living space. Back on the main level, you'll find a beautiful sunroom with a brick floor and 270 degree views of the property during all 4 seasons that is accessible off the formal dining room and breakfast room. French doors from the sunroom lead to the impressive exterior brick patio with a fire chimney created with natural mixed colored stones pulled from the property itself and is perfect for dining alfresco and enjoying the outdoors. The owners converted half of the detached garage into a 566 square foot guest cottage with two bedrooms, a living area, kitchenette, laundry, and a full bathroom. There is still a 1-car garage and the entire second floor is storage. The pond features a mated pair of Royal Mute swans, native fish including a few koi, bass, catfish, crappies, sunfish and more, turtles, and hosts migrating birds and local wildlife. There is a very nice chicken coop with several runs beyond the pond. The Brayton Garden trail is a stone's throw away and perfect for a quick hike or bike ride ending in Great Blue Heron Park. Unlike most similar homes this property is connected to public water and sewer. Major mechanicals have all been recently replaced. For commuters, Route 309 and the PA turnpike are moments away. This home is a one of a kind gem and ready for a new owner to enjoy for years to come.
