A charming country home or quiet weekend retreat is the setting for this beautifully maintained antique farmhouse, (c. 1790-1815) in the historic "Riverside" section of Oxford. The two story barn garage with workshop and walkup to a full floored loft offers a unique opportunity for an artist's studio, craft space, or private workout/exercise option. Level lawn/play areas with heritage trees and ancient stone walls enhance the hillside backdrop. Other accessory buildings include a potting shed and previously used chicken coop. Step inside from the covered bluestone porch to a thoughtfully re-designed open kitchen concept with walk-in pantry, a quiet front "sitting or reading room" and the burnished wood paneled family room with propane fireplace and original bee-hive oven. The utility is excellent with main level laundry space and an extended mudroom adjacent to the rear door entry. The second floor layout includes three comfortably sized bedrooms with conveniently located hall bath. An added surprise is a private, separate rear entry studio/loft, perfect as a quiet home office option. Period floor boards, built-in storage shelving, hand hewn beams & vintage hardware enhance the character of this home. With "Lake Zoar" in Monroe nearby just over the historic "Stevenson Dam" or a quick car or bike ride, (4.1 miles) to Jackson Cove Beach, (Oxford residents only) offering life guarded swimming, boating, fishing and summer concerts under the stars, this location is ideal.
