Property Description
Discover the historic charm of 14 Linden Farm Lane, a stately mansion built in 1875. This grand and gracious residence offers a unique opportunity for its next generation to update and modernize; unlocking its full potential. The home's Second Empire architecture greets you from the moment you arrive, with a tree-lined drive leading to its signature mansard roof and intricate bracketed cornices. A central rectangular tower adds to the distinguished exterior, recalling the sophistication of its era. Step through the original double front doors into living spaces flooded with natural light, thanks to oversized windows that frame stunning views of surrounding farmland. Period details abound, including intricate moldings, hardwood floors, marble fireplaces, and French doors, all of which are well-preserved. The kitchen and two full bathrooms, while fully functional, are ready for updates to make this extraordinary period home contemporary. A grand staircase leads to the second floor, where three bedrooms offer comfortable, spacious retreats. Here, too, natural light flows through large windows. There's a reading nook on the landing and even the wide corridor offers a spot to sit and enjoy the view. The third story, an untouched time capsule from the late 19th century, features five bedrooms with original wallpaper, period lighting fixtures, and marble sinks in each room. This level has never been renovated, presenting a rare opportunity for restoration enthusiasts to preserve or modernize as desired. A staircase leading to the cupola with 360-degree views tops it all off. Outside, a wrap-around porch envelops the home on three sides, providing a tranquil space to take in the views of the expansive grounds and farmlands beyond. 14 Linden Farm Lane is a remarkable piece of history, blending historic elegance with endless potential. With a little care and creativity, this home could be transformed into a masterpiece that preserves the best of its past while embracing modern living.
