Property description
Abutting Myopia Hunt Club, horse trails and champion golf! This exquisite property, with an impressive tree lined driveway, is set on 5+ acres of beautifully manicured grounds in the epicenter of horse country. Fully renovated in 2005 (to the studs) this spectacular Colonial Farmhouse has had two major additions, seamlessly added using reclaimed beams with the highest quality of craftsmanship. New custom tiled baths, wiring, plumbing, AC, radiant heat and windows are updated. A master bedroom suite was added to the first floor and enjoys walkout access to the bluestone terrace and gardens. The great room is gorgeous, with vaulted ceilings, massive exposed beams, a two story stone fireplace hearth, custom built-ins and a wall of glass streaming natural light all day long. There are 2 additional sitting rooms with beamed ceilings and fireplaces. Four spacious bedrooms are on the second level including a second master suite. The carriage house includes a 2 Bedroom apt & 2 car garage.
