Price Reduction!! This Charming 1850’s Farmhouse has been restored and upgraded. The owner took great strides to maintain the history and charter of the Lackey Homestead while updating with modern amenities. The kitchen is large and has a mixture of modern white & cherry cabinets, butcher block counters and an epoxied slate blackboard counter on the peninsula. The kitchen will be cozy in winter months with the central wood stove. A summer kitchen has a 1917 wood cook stove (currently decorative only and would need metalbestos chimney), an original cast iron sink with a hand pump to the dug well, old tin ceilings & barnboard trim. Much of the main level has exposed hand-hewn beams. Also on the main level, a dining space, 2 living rooms, an office (or main floor bedroom) and 2 bathrooms. Upstairs one will find 3 bedrooms with beadboard walls, central sitting area and a 3/4- bath. Wiring, plumbing and heating have all been updated. The home can be heated with a propane furnace or a pellet boiler, supplemented with the wood stove. Beyond the summer kitchen you’ll find 2 garage bays, one of which is insulated. Outside is a fabulous 2.75-acre lot being all open and pretty level, lending lots of great garden space or room for a few animals. Enjoy making your own apple cider from the apple trees. The original post and beam barn and milk house has had much work done to sure it up for years to come. This property will take you back to simpler time!
