Built in 1847 by the Matthews family, this property seamlessly blends timeless charm with modern comforts. The home has been lovingly restored and thoughtfully renovated, ensuring every detail pays homage to its original design. Delight in the character of the original built-ins in the large dining room--what family treasures have been stored there over the years?
