This piece of Mount Sinai History has been listed for the first time. Built circa 1740 the Saltbox/Cape Cod-style home with its white picket fence, distinctive red roof, wood shutters and glassed-in entryway exudes charm. In addition to the 2050 sq ft home is a two-story wooden barn and detached two car garage on a 1.4 acre lot with mature trees. This property served as the post office for the area for over four decades between 1840 and 1886.
The home has three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The main floor features a Dining Room with a built-in corner hutch, large Kitchen with wood cabinets and granite counters plus a built-in display cabinet, Den with wood burning stove, Formal Living Room with wood burning insert, office, bedroom, full bath and main-level Laundry Room. The second floor has two large bedrooms and a full bathroom. The basement has a stacked-stone foundation with exterior entrance. Solid six panel wood doors, wood floors (under the carpet) and custom woodwork are featured throughout the home.
Park near the red two-car garage and follow the brick path. A generously sized deck with awning is your way in through the back door of the home. Enter the den with gorgeous wood floors that continue into the large kitchen. There are modern conveniences including ductless air conditioning, stainless steel appliances (refrigerator and dishwasher) and public water and also features that reflect its history like wavy glass in the front windows, old school radiators and custom woodwork.
