Handcrafted
* Sale Pending *Attention to detail and passion are a few of the things that come to mind when we see this rare and charming house made with love and fine craftsmanship. On a country road in the woods of Canterbury, not too far and not too close, this circa 1750 resort awaits to be made into your sanctuary. In 1989, the owners bought this property in disrepair. They took it apart and rebuilt it with 2 other 1700s house structures. After years of hard work and dedication, we bring you nothing short of th perfect balance between the 18th century and the 21st century. The foundation was replaced in 1989 with cement blocks for footings and walls. However, the top rows are stone to mimic the look of a stone foundation. The chimney was saved with some repointing and gas inserts in all 4 of the fireplaces. The basement fireplace has a bread baking oven. The structure is made of hand-hewn beams reclaimed like many other parts of the decor, trim and fine woodworking.
The diligent creator of this work of art replicated the few pieces using antique tools and techniques of the 1700s to bring it all together. Modern day kitchen appliances, a 435' deep well pumping 30 gallons per minute, water filtration system, bathroom amenities, a large deck and pool with pergola. The primary bedroom suit has a nautically decorated sunroom. A 3 bay 2 story post and beam garage and woodworking shop, a 1 room cottage for guests, a post and beam garden shed and another 2 room shop with storage units at the other end of the property, where a successful waste oil boiler service business was once run. The main house roof was installed in 2023. All gutters have a leaf guard system with a life time warranty. All other roofs are 4 years old or younger. All the appliances in the house have been under a maintenance service contract, which services them annually with a warranty. The septic system was installed by a local professional in 1989 and has had no problems since. Additionally, with the landscaping and fire pit there leaves little to be desired. The features and opportunities go on and on. It is seldom in life to see someone's exceptional life's work on display with the option to purchase and make it your own. Do not pass up the chance to come experience this.
