Modern conveniences such as a 50-amp RV hookup, Level 1 and Level 2 electric vehicle charging stations, and a five-car garage enhance both guest experience and owner flexibility. Above the garage, a charming carriage house offers additional income potential or private quarters, complete with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. Additional highlights include a basement ideal for storage or flexible use, a separate outdoor wash house for added convenience, and a rare outdoor concrete block safe–providing a unique and secure solution for storing valuables. Whether continuing its legacy as a bed and breakfast, transforming into an event venue, or reimagining it as a boutique inn or retreat center, this property offers a unique blend of history, scale, and commercial viability. This is more than a property–it’s an established destination with deep roots and limitless potential.
