Property Description
Beyond the house, another adventure begins. Across the driveway, an historic 1,173 sq. ft. original bathhouse overlooks a sandy beach area below at the river—a popular bathing and picnic spot in the late 1800s when a ferry transported you to the opposite shore. This jaw-dropping rustic space showcases open-span design, exposed truss ceilings, a kitchen area, and a screened porch with seasonal river views. The bathhouse historically served as a Mason's lodge and beach house, making it as extremely rare as it is beautiful. Behind the house, a two-car garage has been thoughtfully converted into a boutique floral shop, complete with a dog-wash station and a mini-split HVAC system. Down the hill, you'll find a barn with 8 stalls, a tack room/utility room, permanent stairs to a hayloft, and rooftop solar panels. Behind the stables is an arbor building. From there, the acreage unfolds in undulating hills, large open fields, and a wooded area, rich with wildlife, leading to the river.
Additional Property Notes: This special property is approximately 18 acres (some designated floodplain) along the river, with the house and garage safely on higher ground, above the flood zone. The property adjoins state game land for an added buffer. The neighboring property has a private airfield. A septic repair permit is on file with the County, but it does not state the tank size or capacity. The property is enrolled in a farm lease tax program, lowering the tax value of the land by $128,000. The home may be eligible for the county's Landmark Status, which would further reduce taxes on the home.
More than a home, this extraordinary historic estate offers a rare combination of architectural character, riverfront beauty, thoughtful restoration, exceptional outbuildings, and 18 acres of riverfront beauty, making this a property unlike any other.
