Property Description

Steeped in history, awash in modern amenities and conveniences, this 4 bed (2 en suite), 3 1/2 bath converted barn sits on over six acres just a spit from the Connecticut River and the quintessential town of Chester. The current homeowner's goal was to gently nudge the 1830s cider mill into this century with thought, care, and charm salvaging and repurposing as many original features as feasible. The transformation included removal of randomly erected partition walls throughout, and reworking the floor plan. Original wall planks were unearthed, hand sawn chestnut flooring was restored, and extra planks were used to create mantles for the 2 fireplaces. The live-edge sheathing in the ceiling was preserved giving the space simultaneously a sense of grandiosity and warmth. The resulting home is an inviting and comfortable retreat for a few or a fabulous entertaining space for many. From the oversized deck complete with outdoor kitchen, look out over the vast field and watch the wildlife including foxes, deer, bobcats, coyotes, American Kestrels, goldfinch and eastern bluebirds, possums, raccoons and more. A few apple trees remain, the fields slope and undulate untouched by time. Enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine in the gazebo or al fresco next to 'frog pond' or as you meander along the path around the pasture. The fully updated estate with new HVAC, roof, solar, kitchen, bathrooms, outdoor shower, electrical, plumbing and septic system is ready for your vision;
