Property Description
The interior of this charming stone cottage is truly special, featuring handcrafted details that are simply remarkable. Upon entering, you are greeted by hand-stenciled artistry resembling "carpets" on the original oak flooring in the foyer, dining room, and hallway. This unique touch sets a warm and welcoming tone for the home. The owner, who has an architectural background, has made this cottage one-of-a-kind with custom-made details including doors, windows, antique latches, and meticulous attention to detail. A highlight of the cottage is the elegant stone wood-burning fireplace, complemented by smooth, seamless ceilings and walls that showcase the careful restoration of this nearly 80-year-old home. With two cozy bedrooms and a beautifully finished bathroom, every element of the cottage reflects thoughtful craftsmanship. The features are designed with longevity in mind; for instance, the Terne Tin roof can last a lifetime. The open attic, equipped with a wood-burning stove, provides versatility and can serve as an artist's studio, additional bedrooms, or offices. The lower level retains the original stone walls, with handcrafted elements concealing updated mechanical systems, and custom features that enhance the home's unique character. In the backyard, trained bamboo has been creatively used to create "sitting rooms," complemented by patios and landscaping made of hand-cut stones from a local quarry, laid in ground stone dust and slate from the original roof. This is not an ordinary home; it is meant to be admired by those who appreciate the handmade details throughout. For more information, please call.
