对于那些渴望书写人生新篇章的人来说,这栋房子拥有独一无二的人生阅历。探索这处历史悠久的房产,它在精心翻新的同时,保留了其丰富的特色。这座占地 4.12 英亩的原 Gum Spring Tavern 酒馆始建于 1790 年左右,以其宽阔的带顶门廊和庄严的柱子,成为南方殖民时期建筑的典范。1994 年,现任看守人偶然发现了一个机会,可以合并他们祖传的 Long Meadow 农舍,该农舍始建于 1650 年左右的切斯特。当时 Long Meadow 即将被推土机推平,因此最年轻的继承人决定承接一项书籍项目。他拆除并搬迁了整个家族农舍,使其与酒馆无缝衔接。一楼铺设宽阔的松木地板,设有音乐室、宽敞的厨房、豪华客厅、可容纳 20 人的餐厅和家庭办公室。除一间房间外,所有房间均设有壁炉。楼上有五间装修精美的卧室,每间都配备全套浴室——非常适合住宿加早餐——此外还有一间图书室和两个壁炉。步入干燥的地下室,可以看到酒馆原有的冬季厨房,厨房内设有第七个壁炉、洗衣房、公用设施、储藏室和带新电动门的车库。三个漂亮的门廊非常适合招待客人或俯瞰郁郁葱葱的庭院。一道环绕着房屋的分体式围栏、一座装饰性井房、一个1820年代的玉米仓,以及一个两层楼高的谷仓,谷仓内有水电设施、两个壁炉(!)和水泥地面,非常适合用作工作室或乡村派对场地。该房产自给自足,拥有已付清所有费用的太阳能电池板、新近检查的化粪池和水井;还有用于种植蔬菜、饲养农场动物和运营附属建筑的场地,以支持各种商业活动。双区热泵和热水器(@2020);新粉刷过的直立锁边屋顶; Hardiplank 壁板和 Anderson 窗户(2012 年);全新 Pex 管道(2024 年)。这样的机会可不多见。这栋特别的房子的故事接下来会如何发展呢?
For those seeking to write their next chapter, this home has a biography like no other. Discover a storied property that has been respectfully updated while preserving its rich character. Set on 4.12 acres, the original Gum Spring Tavern, circa 1790, is the picture of Southern Colonial architecture with its wide covered porches and stately columns. In 1994, the current caretakers happened upon the opportunity to merge their ancestral Long Meadow Farmhouse, established in Chester circa 1650. Long Meadow was slated to be bulldozed so the youngest heir decided to undertake a project for the books. He dismantled & moved the entire family Farmhouse to merge seamlessly into the Tavern. The first floor with wide plank heart pine floors features a music room, spacious eat in kitchen, grand living room, dining room fit for 20, and home office. All but one room features a fireplace. Upstairs, there are five beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with a full bathroom--perfectly suited for a B&B--as well as a library & two more fireplaces. Step down to the dry basement level to find the Tavern’s original winter kitchen complete with the 7th fireplace, laundry, utilities, storage & garage with new electric door. Three handsome porches are perfect for entertaining guests or surveying the lush established grounds, a split rail fence outlining the property, a decorative well house, an 1820’s corn crib, as well as the two story barn with electrical, plumbing, two more fireplaces(!) and concrete floor, begging for a workshop or rustic party venue. The property is self-sustaining with fully paid off solar panels, freshly inspected septic & well; grounds for raising vegetables, farm animals and working outbuildings to support a myriad of commercial pursuits. Dual zone heat pumps & water heater (@2020); freshly painted standing seam roof; Hardiplank siding & Anderson windows (@2012); new Pex plumbing supply lines throughout (2024). Opportunities like this don’t occur often. Where shall the story of this special home go from here?
