Presenting The John Knap House. Well preserved 3 bedroom 2.5 bath ca 1705 house is considered museum quality. A rare survivor that the next owner may further enhance to create a one-of-a-kind oasis of beauty, creativity and convenience. Spacious 2186 sqft home has wide plank floors and higher than typical period ceilings. Built in the English post and beam style, house is centered by a massive 3-story center chimney of local stone. Dramatic fireplaces in each of the primary first-floor rooms consistently draw comment. Vintage working barn is a detached 2-car garage with loft and studio apartment. Kitchen is updated and new roof installed last summer. Property is oversize .78 acre parcel framed by stone walls & heirloom greenery. Ample opportunity for expansion or development too. What was once a working barn is now a detached two-car garage with a loft and studio apartment. The kitchen has been neatly updated and a new roof was installed last summer. The house is situated on an oversize .78 acre parcel framed by hand-laid stone walls and an uncommon array of heirloom greenery: trees of magnolia, Japanese and wild cherry, beech, white pine, hickory, and sugar maple; bushes of honeysuckle, lilac and high bush blueberry; flowers of peony, tulip, bleeding heart and hydrangea. A freshly cleared garden plot awaits your green thumb for further enhancements. Beyond its historic attributes this property also presents ample opportunity for expansion or development.
