DESC: Have you ever thought that something was too good to be true? For years people have asked for a stone house on the Cottonwood River close to town, well here it is! This stunning 1874 Limestone house sits on a beautiful 59.1 acres along the Cottonwood River just 1.5 miles from town. Originally built in 1874, this 2-story home has all of the charm and character from yesteryear, an exposed limestone wall, deep window wells, large trim, a fireplace, library and tons of architectural details. This home was completely remodeled and added on to in 2012 with high end finishes by architect Rick Jones. Custom Marvin windows were added, Wedgwood tiles from the late 1800s, and a gourmet kitchen. The kitchen is amazing with an open design, wood beam ceilings and a large island with a wood countertop from an old Amish barn in Wisconsin. The custom cabinets are Knotty-Alder and you will fall in love with the Viking gas stove and hood! The screened in porch is beautiful with a limestone fireplace, vaulted ceilings and a built-in grill. The home has custom finishes throughout the 3,870 sq. ft., with 3 bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with private bath and walk-in closet, and 3 full baths and 2 half baths. There is also an attached 3 car garage, full unfinished basement, backup generator, rural water, 3 CH/CA units, and an irrigation system.
As unique and breathtaking as the house is, the outdoor property is no different! The north property line is the Cottonwood River which is greeted by a hay meadow of native and mixed grasses. Here you will find all kinds of wildlife including deer and turkeys. If you enjoy fishing and kayaking, take advantage of the access to the Cottonwood River or try your luck in the stocked pond. As you move throughout the property, youll find remnants from the past 146 years including stacked stone fences and a limestone foundation from an old barn. Around the home, you will fall in love with the manicured landscaping and garden area, accented by limestone posts, vintage gates, raised flower beds and a garden shed that was one a bunkhouse at Camp Wood. Enjoy the secret garden right off of the screened-in porch that is full of incredible flowers. There is also a 62x36 Morton Building for good storage.
One of our favorite things about this property is that it is truly a one of a kind. Everything is unique with its own story. Whether its the original limestone that was quarried from right across the road, or the Wedgwood tiles that were collected from England, Canada and Australia, to the garden shed from Camp Wood, to the limestone remnants that tell a story from years gone by, it would be impossible to replicate this gorgeous property. Come and see for yourself and take advantage of this opportunity to add your chapter to this storied property!
