Property Description

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Historic Home, Artfully Restored and Imbued with Timeless Charm. Nestled amidst a magical cottage garden, this extraordinary property seamlessly blends history, artistry and architectural authenticity. Originally built in 1836 as a church, the structure is an exquisite example of Gothic Revival design, complete with soaring pointed-arch fenestration that imbues the space with both light and drama. The addition of an ell in 1934 introduced a thoughtfully-designed kitchen where vintage features meet updated appliances. Also included in the ell are three beautifully-appointed bedrooms, each with its own private bath. The dining/sitting area, with its breathtaking two-story Gothic Revival window, serves as an awe-inspiring gathering space.In 1973, the visionary set designers Herbert Senn and Helen Pond, inspired by the enchanting Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham, England, purchased the property and infused it with their remarkable trompe-l'oeil artistry. The effect is nothing short of mesmerizing, as painted details subtly enhance the architecture and breathe new life into the interiors.The large hall, a true showstopper, is home to one of New England's oldest working organs, paired with the warmth and charm of a Ben Franklin fireplace. When the electrified gas lanterns, with their brass reflectors, cast their soft glow across the space, it's easy to imagine being transported to another time entirely.
The current owners have been devoted custodians of this rare gem, carefully restoring its historical elements while thoughtfully incorporating modern amenities. The tower clock, previously silent, ticks away once more. A comprehensive list of updates is available, showcasing the loving care taken to preserve the home's legacy while enhancing its livability for today's lifestyle.
This property isn't just a home, it's a living piece of history where the past and present converge in the most stunning of settings.
