Just 10 minutes from downtown and a stone’s throw from Lake Waramaug, is this charming antique. Originally constructed in 1880, the house retains much of its original character but has been lovingly renovated and meticulously maintained by the former owner. Taken down to its good bare bones everything was updated including the roof and mechanicals. While traditional in feel, the house is comfortable, fresh, cheerful and easy to maintain. The foyer leads to the open living room/dining room with wood-burning fireplace, hardwood floors, and built-in bookcases. French doors open to a solarium with wrap-around mullioned windows looking out onto birch trees and distant hills. A large deck is located off the solarium. A pristine, white kitchen, a good-sized bedroom (or den) and bath with whirlpool tub complete the main floor. Upstairs is a large loft bedroom with vaulted ceiling, lovely old pine floors and another full bath. The four tranquil acres offer expansion possibilities.
