Description
GORGEOUS ESTATE! The stunning Elijah Bacon house, originally a sea captain's home, is a circa 1833 Colonial with many original features intact, but completely updated for today's modern living. This charming 4,472 square foot home, which includes 5 bedrooms and 2 full and 2 half bathrooms, sits on an estate-like 1.6 acres, complete with a seasonal guest cottage and an historic dairy barn. Located in the scenic Potowomut section of Warwick and once part of a 330 acre estate owned by the family of Nathanael Greene of Revolutionary War fame, this unique property is located just minutes from the shops, restaurants and marinas of charming downtown East Greenwich, as well as from the beaches and miles of biking and jogging trails at Goddard State Park in Warwick.
The current owners, working with their architect, designers and builder, have undertaken a total renovation of this gracious Colonial home. The resulting renovation exhibits a sensitivity to the historic nature and details of the home, while also updating it to the high standards of modern-day living. All of the home's mechanical systems--heating, plumbing and electrical--have been completely updated, as has the septic system. All new Marvin windows were also installed throughout the home, as well as ample recessed lighting and all new lighting fixtures. The more formal living areas located in the original front wing of the house were restored as closely to their early 19th century appearance as possible, while the back of the house (comprised of various additions) was renovated to provide more open, bright and functional living spaces. The kitchen was relocated, enlarged and appointed with high-end details, while all bathrooms were completely renovated.
The first floor of the home includes an oversized living room with a lovely beamed ceiling, a formal dining room with beautiful millwork, a cozy library with built-in bookshelves, a family room with a cathedral ceiling and massive fireplace, an office, a half-bath, a mudroom, a butler's pantry and a true chef's kitchen. There are 5 wood-burning fireplaces on the first floor of the home, all in working order. The kitchen, with its cathedral ceiling, radiant-heat flooring, eat-in dining area, and original fireplace with a beehive oven, is anchored by a massive island and features a custom Lacanche range from France and a limestone-tiled floor in a lovely checkerboard pattern.
The second floor of the home includes a master bedroom with its own dressing area and en-suite master bathroom, complete with custom tile work, a jetted tub and a separate tiled shower with a rain-shower head. Also on this floor are two additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom with a tub and double sink with a soapstone counter, plus a large laundry room with its own half bath. The third floor includes 2 additional bedrooms and a playroom/bonus space, along with 2 walk-in cedar closets.
The grounds of this unique property include a quaint, seasonal guest cottage, with new lighting, windows and walls, which has a loft space and has been framed for a bathroom. A large fire pit, fashioned from fieldstones found on the property, is located near the barn. The barn itself--a large, historic, post and beam structure, with soaring spaces, new electrical wiring, a massive chandelier, beautiful old wood and the remnants of animal stall--is a wonderful entertaining space, and has played host to a wedding and numerous parties in recent years.
This historic gem is conveniently located just minutes to downtown East Greenwich and 25 minutes to Providence.
