Property Description
Impressive home in convenient Goshenville! Built in 1800, the building housed a General Store for 117 years and the Goshenville Post Office until 1904. The beautiful, stone facade with large front porch welcomes guests and family into the original part of the home - a gracious, open room highlighted by a walk-in fireplace, wide-plank floors, and simple, but elegant, built-in shelving and cabinetry. The 24" stone walls gently curve into the deep windowsills and the windows have shutters replicating the original style. In the 1805 addition, the spacious dining room has paneled walls and original built-in cabinetry. Continue into the beautiful, new kitchen, with custom cabinetry carefully selected to blend seamlessly with the character of the home. Step down into the most recent addition, where you find the breakfast room and cozy den with woodburning stove. The large family room opens to a screened-in porch with peaceful views of the garden and lily pond. The second floor features a large master bedroom with a huge walk-in closet/dressing room and full bath. Two generously sized guest bedrooms have en-suite full baths. The fourth bedroom runs along the rear of the house and could easily be divided into two large bedrooms with space left for a common study/play area. The extensive backyard has beautiful perennial gardens, a wisteria trellis, and flowering trees. Ample parking and a detached 3-car garage complete this unique and very special property. The seller made many significant improvements that the new owner will appreciate: re-pointing stone walls, installing new windows and exterior trim, a stormwater management system, a whole-house generator, and an instant hot water heater. East Goshen has received funding to enhance the small town feel of the Goshenville area, encompassing East Goshen Park and the many walking trails(see documents for plan) and this distinctive home will be right in the heart of it all!
