RARE Opportunity!! Silver Grove Farm is for sale - This historic Federal farmhouse was built in 1810, a mere 10 yrs after George Washington's passing, and most of it's original features are in tact! Property includes just over 3 acres. The HUGE barn was built in 1809, the family lived in the barn while the house was being built. The barn has 3 horse stalls, hay mow, tack room, and workshop. The barn roof is being replaced, prior to closing, along with the copulas ($90k repair). The barn has well water and electric. There is an acre behind the barn (into the crops) for a paddock. The farmhouse is made from soft bricks, hand fired, onsite, as was customary in this time period. There are 5 large bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, original woodwork/trim, original plaster ceiling medallions, arrow molding, original handblown glass windows, all of the details you would expect to see in a historic, 213 year old home! Property also features an in-ground, heated, pool with a new solar cover, and 3 yr old liner. A/C was added upstairs and downstairs, NO knob and tube wiring, new flooring on first level, and brand new carpet upstairs. There is untapped potential upstairs in the floored attic (great storage) and also in the unfinished basement. The back room was added where the original summer kitchen would have been. Property also features a super cute milk house. There is a separate office building (looks like another house). This was where the carriage house was originally. This structure was converted into a garage and then into office space by the current owner. This can easily be converted back into a 4 car garage . Property is priced accordingly knowing there are cosmetic updates needed, property being sold as is with no known defects other than what was disclosed on the property disclosure. Solid historic home with a great provenance! First floor Master is possible! Seller providing a 1 year home warranty.
