What a truly exceptional house! We selected it because we were traveling with dogs and it looked like a lovely home but were blown away when we arrived. The house was built in the 1700s and has been meticulously preserved and gently modernized. The details such as the numerous stone fireplaces and kings lumber floors make this house a stunner. It is huge and the rooms are enormous. The beds are so comfortable and the bathrooms are large and stocked with the necessities. As others have shared, it has a very comfortable TV room, a kitchen with ample appliances and cookware for whatever meals you wish to cook, and a full size washer and dryer. We didn't use the dining room or living room but they looked lovely. And they have a cute gym! The house isn't the only story. The property is beautiful with gorgeous lawns and ample sitting areas and a pool in its own building! There is a second rental property making this ideal for family reunions. The house would also make the perfect girls weekend or wellness retreat space. Because it is an historic house, there is a bit of a learning curve. Electricity came much later to the house so it may take a moment to figure out which switches go with which lights. Also, the floors are uneven as is appropriate for the home. We were cautioned to be thoughtful with the hot water - which we were and had no problems at all. For those who love these gorgeous older homes, you will likely find these charming features!

The property was wonderful and the rooms were huge with comfortable beds! Our main issue was just finding all the light switches for each room. Many were covered up or didn’t work. Once we did, though, it was fine. The house is huge and a bit of a maze to find your way around with hallways that go in circles and two stairways. We had fun finding our way and had it down by the end of the weekend! Those of us that used the pool loved it, although the doors to get in were extremely difficult to open, and we loved the big dining room table when we played games, the huge comfy couch for watching TV and plenty of counter space in the kitchen. We were warned to schedule and spread out our showers so as to preserve the hot water but didn’t have any problems with running out. There was plenty of parking and the area was very quiet. The AC was nice and definitely needed.

Enjoyed our gateway

The house is conformable (and warm), well equipped (and safe for our 2y old son).We had a great time.
