As you approach the front door you pass the pergola, beautiful stone terrace, and lovely gardens, feeling the gentle blend of Old-World structural charm with the New-World vibe of this property's downtown location. From the two porches of this vintage building, you look down on gardens & stonework and can enjoy views of the Wantastiquet ridgeline and gorgeous sunrises over Wantastiquet. The home's open interior, with spacious rooms, has a practical floor plan. Hardwood and random-width pine floors are throughout. The warm and masterfully crafted cherry cabinetry of the kitchen is replicated in the woodworking throughout two of the 3 bathrooms. A generously sized, ensuite bedroom is on the first floor with three more bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor. The home is heated and air-conditioned with a highly energy-efficient, state-of-the-art heat pump, ensuring comfort in every season. There is also an energy-efficient induction oven adding to the state-of-the-art technology. Lots of space allows a separate laundry room, front mudroom with workspace, storage room, and sauna. This property provides the effortless existence of condominium life with the rare addition of individuality and uniqueness. This location is ideal, with close proximity to several access points to the Retreat Trails, an extensive system of hiking trails, the closest being at the nearby Chestnut Reservoir. Not many opportunities like this come around.
