This 1840's Church was rebuilt from the inside in 1988 including the foundation and all interior walls. The main house has four bedrooms, beautiful wood walls and floors downstairs, and a unique 'chill buster' Russian Wood Stove. Garage to the original structure includes radiant heat and a service pit. In 2008, the original owners built an addition, creating a connected suite over an additional garage space, with a spacious open-space kitchen/living/dining area, an additional two bedrooms, and a laundry room. This property is not zoned for a duplex, but it's six bedrooms are supported sufficiently by 5-bedroom septic system and could likely be re-configured as a residential single-family home with an ADU (buyer to verify). Home is heated by a single oil furnace through combination of radiant and baseboard heat. Seller previously used a wood fired boiler, which is now disconnected, but still onsite if preferred. The interior craftsmanship, unique history, and utility of this property make it a gem, move-in ready, and a prepared canvas for a next generation of interior innovators! 2.6 acres including access to Newell Brook add rural flair and natural beauty to a property so close to travel routes, local amenities and all the Durham Freeport area has to offer. If this property were a Winnie-the-Pooh character, we would call it Tigger! There's nothing else like it and it's awesome. Continue the sweet history of this special place. Come see it today!
