Property Description
Don't miss this historical gem set on 7 private acres! Perfect for historians, artists, nature lovers, weekenders, or families, this unique residence is nestled in a serene and storied setting. Located in what was once known as Saw-Mill Rift—an old logging community and bluestone quarry—this property lies within land originally part of the 439 acres James Sawyer acquired from his father in 1814. Local historians believe the home was built by Sawyer's grandson, William, in the late 1890s, though evidence, such as an artifact discovered in the basement and an etching on the house, suggests the original construction may date back to 1880. After sitting untouched for years, the home underwent a comprehensive restoration in 2021, with over $200,000 invested in thoughtful updates. Recent upgrades include a new oil tank, boiler, Pentair Wellmate composite pressure tank, washer, dryer, refrigerator, range, roof, sliding glass doors, select windows and more! The charm of the past remains in the beautifully preserved original chestnut floors in the living and dining rooms, and original pine flooring upstairs. Come experience this rare jewel in person it won't last!
