Description
Wanted- old house lover looking for a home in a charming Catskills arts village. This is believed to be the oldest house in the historic village of Franklin, and in move-in condition. Part of the house is a former inn which was moved to the site, then enlarged. A simple exterior belies the charm that lies within. Walk onto the old fashioned front porch into an oversized entry with a parlor stove. To the left, a large living room flooded with light, and a bedroom or office with full bath. On the right, a large formal dining room with built in-cabinets and a wonderful old kitchen with a sunny breakfast nook and pantry, brand new black and white floors and new countertop, with a 15X10 wall of glass doors looking out to the deck for views of formal gardens lovingly created by a plant collector. Upstairs, a modernized bath with vintage fixtures, two sizeable bedrooms, and a third room that holds another double bed. There is a walk-up attic, and a large, clean basement. Outside, a large three story carriage house with updated electric - the lowest level has a cozy pub feel with concrete floor and stone walls, while upstairs can house cars and the loft could become a studio or workspace. The house mechanicals are good and two inspections confirm that. There's a newer furnace, new electric and new wiring, new hot water heater, new septic and a ten year old roof. Why hasn't it sold? We haven't found the right buyer yet. Maybe it's you. In the village, but on a back street, this is a quiet, peaceful setting with a view of the weather coming over Christian Hill every morning. The lot configuration makes the property feel larger than it is, and private. Walk to the coffee shop, the Farmer's Market, and the Franklin Stage. The village of Franklin is a National Historic District, and this property occupies pride of place in its history.
