Built in 1861 and rich in history, this extraordinary four-bedroom, three-bath all-stone home is the kind of craftsmanship and character you simply do not find anymore. Originally built by Judge Bates as a limestone hops barn and later served as Civil War barracks for Union soldiers awaiting deployment, the property offers a fascinating blend of history, beauty, and opportunity. Soldiers’ signatures are still visible in the upper rafters, and the original stone marker dating to the 1800s remains on the grounds. Massive limestone walls measuring 14–18 inches thick showcase the remarkable construction of a bygone era. <br> <br>Lovingly restored and thoughtfully updated, the home combines historic charm with modern comfort. Renovations transformed the original barn into a spacious multi-level residence featuring cherry hardwood floors, updated plumbing and electric, hydronic in-floor heat, restored fireplace, library, gallery hall, pantry, and generous living spaces filled with warmth and character. <br> <br>Set on six picturesque acres with sweeping countryside views, the property is a dream for gardeners, growers, and entrepreneurs alike. The grounds feature more than 150 rare varieties of lilacs displayed in an exhibit garden, approximately 1,400 peony plants, 200 lilac trees with over 100 rare varieties, 10 apple trees, 4 pear trees, and two 48-foot greenhouses. It is the seller’s understanding that portions of the land may qualify as organic. Municipal water services the home, while a private well supports the agricultural needs of the property. <br> <br>Additional structures create endless possibilities. A secluded three-season cabin offers a wood stove, outdoor shower, and composting outhouse, while a separate 12’ x 20’ cottage currently serves as a fragrance studio specializing in essential oil production. Featured in the Spring 2022 edition of Better Homes &amp; Gardens, this one-of-a-kind property could serve as a private estate, flower farm, wellness retreat, event venue, or inspiring countryside escape.
