Description
This beautiful & rambling antique home was built in 1827 & is one of the oldest properties in Truro. The classic post & beam construction is complimented by period details such as wainscotting, moldings, raised & recessed panel woodwork, built-ins & original floors.Sited nicely back from the road there are over 1.8 acres to explore with plenty of room to add a swimming pool. Off to the side yard is a large outbuilding that could be transformed into numerous uses.Enter the very spacious foyer & to the left is a good-sized den. Straight ahead is a lovely dining room which leads to a large eat-in kitchen with direct patio access & a half bath. There is also a full bath on the first floor. The huge living room with 12 windows was added in 1996 along with a gorgeous wrap-around covered porch.Upstairs are five bedrooms & one full bath. The property is private but not isolated, with the Blackfish restaurant, Post Office, Truro General Store, summer Farmer's Market & Pamet River are just up the road! Also, Fisher & Corn Hill Beaches are both only a bit over 3 miles away on back roads. It's said that Thoreau stayed here on his walking tour of Cape Cod!
