HISTORIC ESTATE COMPLETELY AND ELEGANTLY MODERNIZED. One of the most beautifully executed renovations of an historic property in this area, the Elisha Crane house (c.1756) overlooks 6+ acres of irrigated gardens and fields with an additional five acres left in its natural state. A team including the esteemed housewright H. "Skip" Broom, landscape architect Christopher Thorpe and interior designer Richard Keith Langham, one of Architectural Digest's top 100 designers, worked for two years to restore this charming, eminently livable estate. The extraordinary light-filled great room's massive stone fireplace, antique wooden timbers and 30' high ceiling beckon you to sit down and feel completely at home. The rooms that follow are equally impressive. The pine paneled living room has a woodburning fireplace as does the adjoining intimate keeping room. Adjacent is the dining room with a hand painted mural, a glorious eat-in kitchen and butler's pantry. Also on the first level is the primary bedroom with ensuite bath, two walk-in closets including a washer/dryer. Upstairs are three attractive, comfortably sized bedrooms and two full baths with a wonderful 4 bed bunk room on the lower level. Nearby is a redone barn made into an entertainment center. There's also space to garage two cars. Ample room for a swimming pool and additional outbuildings. Conveniently located 2 hours from NYC & Boston. Newly Priced! See the list of improvements.
