Nestled on 1.3 picturesque acres in Old Hill, this renovated antique home is brimming with character and modern comforts. Just moments from town, Post Road, and schools, the enchanting professional landscaped grounds feature specimen and fruit trees, a built-in BBQ and fireplace, and a wisteria-draped pergola over a stone patio. A charming barn offers additional storage or creative use. Inside, this 4-bedroom, 5-bath, 3,000 sq. ft. home seamlessly blends historic charm with modern living. A spacious office with built-ins sits off the foyer, while vaulted dining and living rooms flood with natural light. A mudroom connects to the two-car garage for added convenience. The custom eat-in kitchen boasts campaign-style wood cabinetry, Miele and Viking appliances, a honed granite island, and ample space for gathering. French doors in the family room provide sweeping views of the lush grounds, complemented by a cozy fireplace. A sun-drenched sunroom with elegant stone floors offers a serene retreat. Upstairs, the primary suite features a walk-in closet and updated bath. Two additional ensuite bedrooms-one with a fireplace-offer comfort and privacy, while a second-floor laundry adds convenience. The third floor houses the fourth bedroom and another renovated bath. Two heated and cooled outbuildings provide flexible space for a gym, office, or extra bedroom. A generator, security, and sprinkler system complete this rare gem-a perfect retreat for modern living with timeless charm.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
