Rare find with this 1820 post & beam 3 bedroom, 2 bath cape on 12.58 acres at the end of a road. It has been updated with many modern amenities. In 2020, a 48 panel Suncommon solar array was installed with net metering and the electric bills are so low even with new European style electric wall heaters and new mini-splits for AC. There's a 5000 sqft outbuilding with a 240 sqft heated studio/office, 2 bay garage, workshop, barn space and chicken coop outside. A Kohler whole house automatic generator can power the house for up to a week. Other updates include 2019 oil furnace, washer and dryer, 80,000 BTU Hearthstone wood stove, new Roof & skylights 2023-24, exterior repainted 2025, induction/convection range 2024 and more! A first floor bedroom has access to an attached woodshed with a sauna. Upstairs are three additional rooms, a 3/4 bathroom and a large, bright rec room or additional office in the middle. The living room and dining room have all the character with gorgeous beams, built-ins and a classic brick fireplace with mantle and barn boards. Off of the mudroom and laundry area is a dreamy 3-season hemlock post & beam porch with a mahogany floor and ceiling fan and it has a view of the mahogany deck, hot tub, valley, 1/3 acre spring fed trout pond, fenced vegetable garden, and perennial herb and flower gardens. Wild berries are everywhere in summer as well as mature apple orchard with fruit bearing trees. A farmer has leased garden space. Taxes based on 30 acres.
