Step back in time while keeping both feet firmly in the present at this breathtaking 1850 Antique Colonial, a home where history is preserved in every grain of the original wide oak plank flooring that stretches throughout the residence.

The landscape is a masterpiece of nature and design, featuring a pond that serves as a focal point for morning reflections and a sprawling stone patio designed for outdoor entertaining.
