Available for only the third time in it's two-century history, this remarkable property sits on 10.91 unrestricted, fully usable acres with panoramic views of the valley.
The manor house, built in 1835 and thoughtfully expanded in 1906, spans 2,624 sq. ft. and was the subject of a complete restoration in 2017. As part of this restoration, all systems were replaced, including plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. A photographic history of the restoration is available to any potential buyer. Historic details such as original cedar flooring, ledge-and-brace doors, and hand-hewn logs have been lovingly preserved, while updates like the expanded kitchen (2017) bring modern convenience. The roof was freshly painted in 2025, ensuring durability for years to come.
The home includes three bedrooms: two spacious bedrooms on the upper floor with a full bathroom, and one potential two-level bedroom on the lower floor, adjacent to a bathroom, currently used as a music room and craft area. throughout the home, you'll find five fireplaces, two of which are outfitted with wood-burning stoves---providing extra heat and a cozy atmosphere that perfectly complements the historic character.
Adding to the property's uniqueness is a 2,000 sq. ft. post-and-beam barn, constructed in 2020 by the current owner. Finished to a high standard, it currently served as a music studio and office, but with its quality build, it could easily be converted into a guest residence, event space, or artist's retreat.
Despite being located withing Hidden Hollows Subdivision--a secure, gated community--the property is not part of the HOA, giving you flexibility and freedom while still enjoying the privacy of the neighboring parcels ranging from 20 to 50 acres.
