One-of-a-Kind Historical Estate: A Meticulously Maintained Masterpiece of Modern Living

Step into a world where history meets modern luxury in this stunning home, originally Eugene Dupont's horse barn, brilliantly transformed into a residence in 1981 and completely reimagined by the current owner in 2022. This exceptional property captures the grandeur of its past while incorporating contemporary features that create a truly unique masterpiece.

As you approach, let the majestic facade captivate you, leading you into a breathtaking entry foyer with cathedral ceilings that invite you inside. The panoramic views of the dining area extend the sense of space, making it the perfect setting for both grand entertaining and cozy family gatherings. The main floor boasts a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, a well-appointed wet bar, and an abundance of windows that fill the space with natural light.

Your eye will be drawn to the impressive loft above, as well as the gourmet kitchen, which offers endless counter and cabinet space, a stylish island, and high-end appliances. Picture yourself sipping your morning coffee at the quaint table by the window, soaking in the serene views.

This remarkable residence features five bedrooms and six full bathrooms, encompassing close to 8,000 square feet of finely finished living space. The luxurious master suite resides on the main floor, accompanied by two additional bedrooms and a convenient laundry room. Ascend to the upper level, where you can unwind with a book or enjoy a nightcap in the inviting loft, along with another bedroom and full bath perfect for guests.

The lower level reveals a fully-equipped in-law suite complete with a full kitchen, living area, two bedrooms, and a bath, all designed with the same rich character and attention to detail. A separate entrance provides privacy, making it ideal for multigenerational living or as a rental opportunity. Additionally, this level features a versatile game room, complete with a Murphy bed, adding even more functionality to this exquisite home.

Throughout the residence, you will find the original barn ramp and silo, proudly standing as nods to its rich heritage. Reclaimed wood accents, soaring wood-beamed ceilings, and custom-crafted barn doors infuse each space with rustic sophistication, creating a harmonious blend of old and new.

Set on a sprawling 2-acre lot, this estate offers ample space for outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the beauty of nature.
