This jewel of a house embodies practical magic, allowing residents to move through their days swiftly and efficiently, with a touch of whimsy around every corner. The home exemplifies Folk Victorian architecture with equal parts Queen Anne opulence and Yankee restraint. The four-story turret draws the eye up, while its move-in readiness-with a sprinkler system and five strategically placed Smart TVs-imparts a grounded sense of comfort and security. Enter the original French doors and step inside to understated grandeur. To the right is a formal living room, to the left a bright family room, followed by a renovated kitchen and dining room, along with a bathroom and light-filled hallway to a second entrance. Two sets of stairs take you to four distinctive bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a game room. The third floor has two charming bedrooms and access to the turret. An attached, open-concept apartment lends a contemporary feel to the property and has recently been re-roofed. The back deck landscaping provides privacy, while the covered front porch, which suffered ice damage this winter (a local renovation contractor has quoted the rehab and is available to complete the job this summer), is certain to welcome guests with dignity. A quaint, two-bay garage and a historic barn-once the town's general store-can store vehicles or other belongings while awaiting renovation. Walk to multiple stellar eateries; bike, or drive a few miles to Ludlow.
