Antique lover's dream...If you love authentic features and appreciate excellent craftsmanship, this house is the one! The home features wide board floors, plaster walls, hand-blown glass-paned windows, latched doors, nine fireplaces, and antique charm; truly a piece of history. Two stunning 18th/19th-century homes were combined to create this antique masterpiece. The original Dawson house was built in 1856, beautifully maintained and restored. The current owners wanted to be true to the historic nature of the property and dismantled and moved another period home for the addition. Built in 1750, The Ring Family Homestead from Bridgeton, Maine was painstakingly deconstructed and delivered in 1985. It was meticulously reconstructed to seamlessly join the front house, offering a spacious, natural, authentic home. High ceilings grace every room; the exposed beams, 9 fireplaces, and lovely details enhance the historic feel. There are close to 6 acres of bucolic land (on 2 separate lots), 3 post & beam outbuildings, a garage, paths through the woods, a stream, and more to enhance the experience. The attention to detail and commitment to historical accuracy is evident in details such as the bricks in the fireplaces that came via truck from Maine, the historical Old Village paint colors, original doors, many antique sconces and so much more. There are at least five bedrooms and 4 full and 2 half baths. The flexible floor plan allows for many choices in utilizing the spaces. Adjoining the property is an additional 3.14 acres of untouched land that backs up to the Richardson Golf Course and adds to the charm and elegance of this stunning property (760 Hoydens Hill Rd is 3.14 acres with taxes of $4,213.00 per year).
