Continue the legacy of owning the oldest home in Chesterfield with its rich history, bucolic setting of woods, fields, a pond and former orchard. The home's historic features have been well maintained; exhibiting beamed ceilings, wide board floors and paneling from the hurricane of 1938. The chef in the family will love the updated kitchen centered around an island, its large gas range with grill and griddle, a prep nook with vegetable sink and all the appliances necessary for gourmet meal preparation. Areas for relaxing or entertaining include formal dining and living rooms - each with a fireplace - plus a magnificent great room highlighted by a brick fireplace with oven. 1 bay of the 3-car garage has been converted to a workspace for those projects or hobbies. For the gardener, the kitchen leads to a small greenhouse and in turn to the kitchen garden for your herbs, spices and vegetables. Or, if you just want to sit and enjoy the outdoors, the covered deck would be the spot. But if the weather doesn't cooperate, there is the long, enclosed porch. Want to try your hand at being a gentleman farmer? The open fields are there to support your animal of choice. You can also restore the apple orchard and its barn which was formerly used for sorting and storing the apples. With part of the acreage across from the house and long frontage on both sides of the road, privacy is assured. This prime property awaits your ideas and dreams to create your own homestead.
