Set back a long driveway, the c. 1788 stone house with several additions was most recently expanded & updated in 2009 to become a 6,200SF residence. In 2013, the property's bank barn was enlarged & converted into stunning living space complete with elevator & top-grade custom finishes. The renovation & expansion was overseen by architect Lynn Taylor with construction by Eric Greb. Once a working farm & later home to notable writer & playwright John Hess, the property still bears evidence of its agricultural past with its outbuildings, pond & hay fields.
