Description
A once in a lifetime find, this unspoiled, 1776, antique colonial has been maintained in near original condition by two families, one for the first 186 years and another for the last sixty years. Historic details include wide pine plank floors, wall paneling, and wainscoting; mantle pieces, trim, cabinetry, and exposed brick. Known as the Peaslee Tavern, this home has a ballroom with a continuous built-in wooden bench, where dances were held, militia was trained and circuit court sessions were convened. Opposite the double front doors, in a niche beside the stairway, is the sliding window from which ale was dispensed. This room still has an open area under the staircase where the barrels and glasses sat. Seven fireplaces, five bedrooms, formal living and dining rooms, and a wide covered porch add to the charm of bygone days. Modern comforts include newer boiler, roof, electrical, 2.5 baths and 1960s kitchen. The adjacent 100 acre parcel is also available for sale to the new owner.
