Property Description

Step back in time to circa 1790 without sacrificing any comfort or convenience. Welcome to this often admired, quintessential, Federal era, center chimney colonial farmhouse, located in historic Rumford RI. You are first greeted by a perfectly symmetrical facade, radiating the elegance of early American craftsmanship. Inside, hand-hewn beams, wide-plank pine floors, and 6 fireplaces (two with authentic beehive ovens) whisper stories of the past. Situated on idyllic grounds, this home is not just a place to live and create your own memories, it is a preservation of heritage and history. This impeccably maintained residence features wide pine floors, a classic formal dining room with original paneling, a formal parlor, two staircases, and beautiful hand-stenciled walls. The post-and-beam construction offers incredible character, while original hand-forged nails and wainscoting remain intact. The floor plan, though traditional, offers many possibilities only limited by your imagination. Modern conveniences include a first-floor laundry room, walk-in closet, central air, a garage, and an outdoor sprinkler system, all nestled on 1/3 of an acre on a corner lot. Perennial flower beds, entertaining areas, and stone walkways dot the landscape. Convenient to parks, recreation, Providence, MA, shopping and dining. A rare opportunity to own a true collector's home for the lover of early American architecture.
