Come see this lovely large fieldstone cottage in a private setting with mature plantings and “secret gardens” waiting to be recaptured. The stone work is impressive and incorporates some truly lovely natural elements. Built in 1941 by the present owner’s family, the house has rich oak floors, a dining room with charming built-ins and a large formal dining room with a distinctive mantel. The showstopper however is a rustic den with an impressive stone wall and fireplace. A first floor master and remodeled bathroom add to its livability. The upstairs bedrooms have all the charm that dormer windows spaces create. The old adage “they don’t build them like they use to” certainly applies to this lovely home. Included with the property is a brick Victorian church that has so many possibilities a studio space, guest quarters or maybe a quiet place for reflection. Sitting on a large city lot it is an easy walk to downtown shops and activities.
