Property Description
Experience a masterfully preserved piece of American history at the Haven-Gould home, proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This exceptional property perfectly pairs a pre-Revolutionary center-chimney Cape with a 1790 brick-end Federal addition. Authentic details shine throughout the home, including wide-board pine floors, plaster walls, exposed beams, hand-forged hardware, and four fireplaces framed by original wavy-glass windows. The side entryway opens into a historic keeping room with a beehive oven, flowing seamlessly into a custom kitchen. This culinary space features soapstone counters, a vintage soapstone sink, a center island with an integrated beverage refrigerator, and artisan-tile highlights alongside a traditional fireplace. Tradition meets convenience with a walk-in pantry with plenty of storage and refrigerator, first-floor laundry, and direct access to the lush backyard. The main level offers a traditional dining room highlighted by a lead-glass cabinet and a stove insert. The living room carries historic details like four-panel doors, cornice moldings, and original wainscoting. Completing the first floor is a spa-like full bathroom with a soaking tub, heated floors, a walk-in shower, and a Kohler Bronze Rain Drum sink. In the grand foyer, an original faded Rufus Porter mural guides you to the second floor, which hosts three spacious bedrooms featuring wide pine wood floors. Through the side entry, an ell connects the home to a vast, flexible space and access to a barn studio or home office warmed by a propane stove. The ell also links a screened porch to the mature outdoor grounds. The property serves as a private oasis with perennial garden beds, fruit trees, a pergola, a stone patio, a storage shed, and a second screened porch off the garage. This natural retreat is beautifully neighbored by a historic 1812 schoolhouse and conservation land offering an unmatched piece of history.
