From the Zillow listing:

 

Once the grandest property in Plainfield she was purchase in the 1980s by a steward who had great vision to restore Kingsbury Tavern back into the pride of the town. The home is complete with four stunning fireplaces, some tastefully adorned with beautiful wood scrolling. The grandest room is a wood paneled receiving room where one can envision the gentlemen sitting about in leisure smoking their pipes and talking town politics. When you walk the grounds you are taken back in time with trees towering above with a girth only 200+ years can cultivate. A gazebo sits at the head of a sunken garden, with koi pond. What a relaxing place to read a good book or talk to an old friend. Behind the home sits a lovely old barn that will surprise you in its size and multi-functional possibilities. If you are a lover of history and historic homes, if you are not afraid of putting elbow grease behind your investment to build equity and if you are in love with the feeling that an old estate-like home can exude, come see this beloved property and feel its magic.
