Meticulously renovated, the Betsy Babcock House marries the best of classic New England center-chimney post and beam architecture with thoughtful and thorough updates, from the structure itself to custom finishes. Whether it's the reclaimed heart pine floors in the living room, or the doors and woodwork echoing the original barnboard accents throughout, the care taken here is evident. No detail was overlooked. Three fireplaces, one of which has a pellet stove for added winter warmth, grace the first floor. The exposed stone chimney beautifully centers the primary bedroom, which spans the upper floor, and has an ensuite half bath. Light and bright, the kitchen with vaulted ceiling was renovated in 2022, adding a newly-leveled subfloor, handcrafted cabinetry, and Bertazzoni appliances. With the original structure believed to be circa 1685 and confirmed dendrochronology of beams and woodwork dating to the 1700's, 'Betsy's House' has been featured in a number of publications, yet is exempt from historical register constraints. The carefully curated gardens in the fully-fenced yard have been featured on the annual Cross Mills Gardens-by-the-Sea tour, while location in the Traditional Village District, 1.5 miles to the beach, offers possibilities galore. For those who dream of owning an antique home, but enjoy the creature comforts of exceptional new construction, this property offers an opportunity for truly unique South County living. Subject to seller obtaining suitable housing.
