"QUERENCIA"- a rare offering - This stunning sanctuary is an extraordinary example of a home meticulously restored with such care.
Evident is the labor of love that went into renovating and restoring this rare original 1740/1840 farmhouse with an I.M. Pei disciple-designed magnificent modern addition. The location is totally private on its 8 acres surrounded by 600 acres of farmland on an incredibly private and quiet unspoiled country lane.
Step into history to a home so welcoming and warm with magical light pouring into each room throughout the day. A joyous home where you can wander through gracious spaces to gather and intimate spaces to disappear and read, meditate or nap. There are 3 gracious en-suite bedrooms, including first floor primary with fireplace, two smaller bedrooms plus an additional full bath, one with large soaking tub overlooking the property, and the two primary suites with dressing rooms, plus ample closets and storage throughout the house. The romance of original details exude through the house from all the original and restored floors to the early beamed ceilings, the fireplaces, her soft curved stair to the countless windows. those Dutch doors and hard to find hardware saved through-out! There are 2 wood-burning fireplaces in the early era of the home and an "Inglenook" with massive fireplace in a silo-like structure in the fabulous addition housing the kitchen, seating and dining areas with sweeping views of the pool, a quintessential sweet weathered barn, a delightful red barn (endless possibilities) the ponds, fields of glorious wildflowers.
It's truly thoughtful how all the modern additions and touches meld with the original structure and marry to this magical landscape. Dine alfresco in season with various stone terraces seating areas, swim and lounge by the pool or meditate among the wildflowers. In winter snow ski or just sit by a fire overlooking the magic. Each season displays Mother Nature's radiant yet peaceful beauty. A captivating year-round retreat offering both inspiration and privacy.
