Property Description
First time offered in close to 100 yrs, this charming half-cape, built in 1749 is a truly unique property & is listed on the National Register of Historic Homes! Once owned by Daniel Crosby of the Crosby boat builders & other prominent residents, this 2 bedroom, 1 bath dollhouse has been a labor of love for the Seller who was recognized for his award winning, top to bottom restoration of the property. The home was restored in 2 parts & includes a hand-dugout basement, with a genuine modern foundation, yet the 4 original cornerstones remain along with real stone masonry, as well as white cedar shakes & a red cedar bow-style roof. The home is fully insulated to contemporary standards, & the same wide pine seen on the floors was also used inside the walls, then plastered using traditional methods. No plywood or sheetrock here! Each mahogony framed window is handcrafted w/ pride. There are 3 fireplaces, including one in the kitchen. Teak countertops & other nautical touches adorn the space. Thoughtfully designed like a boat, everything has its place. There's gas heat/central air too! Situated just 2 houses from the Village & down the lane from West Bay, this historic home is amazing!
