The Jedidiah Parker Farm is the perfect, manageable farm for those who must have an antique home! With many, many original features and others replicated, it is almost primitive in feel and character. There are four fireplaces, pine floors and wainscoting, chair rails and gunstock posts. With over 2,200 s/f, the floor plan is typical of the era with the exception of a very unique good morning staircase and a back staircase which is quite unusual for a country cape of this vintage.
Enjoy two front parlors, now the living and dining rooms, a keeping room across the back of the main house with beehive oven, and a summer kitchen converted to a den. The pine cabineted kitchen has recently had a facelift and boasts a granite countertop, tile flooring and new stainless appliances. There is also a 3/4 bath with ceramic tile floor on this level.

Enjoy two front parlors, now the living and dining rooms, a keeping room across the back of the main house with beehive oven, and a summer kitchen converted to a den. The pine cabineted kitchen has recently had a facelift and boasts a granite countertop, tile flooring and new stainless appliances. There is also a 3/4 bath with ceramic tile floor on this level. Upstairs are 2-3 bedrooms and a vintage full bath. Walk-in attic space that runs the length of the ell lends itself to expansion possibilities.
Updates and upgrades have been made where they matter from the authentic looking 9 over 6 double hung windows (but they are double glazed!) to insulation and wiring, including hard wired smoke detectors and a 200 amp entrance. The house roof was replaced in 2008 and the furnace, hot water heater and well pump are within the past two years. Off the den, to the rear of the ell is a mudroom and/or dog room. The owner bred dogs here and the set up is perfect for the small scale breeder or just the family pet or two. There are outside runs and a very private side yard that is 7' chain link fenced.
The antique barn is original to the property according to the owner. It certainly appears so. Probably a hay barn back in the day, it is within close proximity of the house and has one new horse stall and tow older stalls that would work nicely for sheep or other livestock. An original outhouse is still intact leading us to believe that the barn was probably connected to the house at some point in time. Other outbuildings include a screen house at the edge of the field and a great henhouse with poultry yard.
The land is 12+ acres and enjoys protective road frontage and open areas for a few horses and farm animals. Please click the Aerial button above. The land abuts several hundred acres of conserved land to the rear for a permanently private back boundary.
