Explore the captivating Elisha Fairchild House, a living testament to history since 1759. This meticulously preserved colonial, graced by only five families over 238 years, embodies enduring values of preservation and continuity. Originally part of the Coleman family's dairy farm, it now seamlessly blends historical significance with modern comforts. At its core, three exquisite brownstone fireplaces symbolize the home's deep roots and the familial warmth it has embraced over generations. Crafted from rich brownstone, these hearths radiate not just heat, but the essence of home. The thoughtfully designed kitchen addition, featuring charming bow windows, offers a cozy spot for meals and views of the outdoors. Upstairs, five bedrooms with high ceilings bask in natural light, accompanied by two full baths. Surrounded by a serene outdoor setting adjacent to a 56-acre tree farm, the landscape celebrates nature's beauty with magnolias, birches, and pines. The blooming perennial beds add to its allure, promising tranquility and privacy. More than just a home, the house invites you to contribute to its legacy and create your own memories within its historic walls.
