Overview
Surrounded on three sides by the 90-acre Palmer-Taylor Preserve, this one-of-a-kind home offers an extraordinary combination of history, privacy, and natural beauty. Originally built in 1979 and thoughtfully expanded over the years, the residence incorporates an early 20th-century guesthouse once associated with the Taylor family of nearby St. Clements Castle, creating a home unlike any other. The setting is truly special, with permanently protected conservation land providing exceptional privacy, direct access to walking trails, abundant wildlife, and peaceful views in every season. A nearby stream, bluestone terrace, bocce court, fire pit, and beautifully landscaped grounds create inviting outdoor spaces for relaxing and entertaining. Inside, the flexible floor plan offers multiple living areas, a spacious primary suite with loft, and a finished walkout lower level with a full bath. Recent improvements include updated windows, central air conditioning, a high-efficiency natural gas boiler installed in 2024, and rare underground natural gas service. The existing carport was designed with future expansion in mind and is engineered for conversion to an enclosed garage, with the potential to add a second-story space above. Additional features include a backup generator system, security system, and mature landscaping designed to provide year-round beauty. A remarkable opportunity to own a home where history, architecture, and nature come together.
