If this house could talk, what secrets would it tell you about its history?
In the realm of possible secrets, this house, built in1795, can probably compete with the intrigues that went on at Edith Warton’s estate nearby. However, since none of us was around in those days, we have to focus on more recent secrets: One secret would be the identity of the contractor who updated this house and managed to keep the wonderful continuity between yesterday and today. Another secret would be the history of the “ice house”—how it was used in past centuries vs. how it can be used today as a welcoming venue for large gatherings and as an easy place to relax after a nice swim in the nearby pool. And one more secret: This property must be seen to be appreciated. Call today for a showing of this one-of-a-kind gem!
