Lilly Knoll – Just Outside the Hamlet of Fly Creek

This sprawling ±2,758 square foot c.1790 farmhouse sits on ±8.52 acres including a separate ±3 acre lot adjacent. With pretty lawns, a small stream, perennials, apple trees, fields, a stone patio, stone walls and original outhouse, this property is picturesque and inviting. Cozy side porch opens to a mudroom entrance with two or three smaller rooms which were used for a shop, artist’s studio and office space. The large eat-in country kitchen has plenty of cupboards, nice windows for natural light, built in cabinets at one end with cupboards, shelves and glass fronted display areas. Beams from an old barn on the property have been added, there is a woodstove, wide pine floors, and a cast iron pot hanger. Just off the kitchen is a den or office space, perfect for guests. The formal dining room has Federal woodwork and wide pine floors. A large sunny living room was a later addition and offers wood beams, a brick hearth with Jotul wood stove, built-in bookshelves and wide pine floors. In addition, on this floor is a laundry room and two full bathrooms. The second floor offers a pretty large hallway with built-ins, eyebrow windows, wide pine floors, creating a cozy sitting area. There are four bedrooms, two with multiple built-ins, a full bath and two walk in attic storage areas. Interesting nooks and crannies throughout. Systems in updated condition including a state-of-the-art Bosch geothermal heating system installed five years ago. The next-door lot is separately deeded and would make an excellent building site. Spectrum cable and internet. This property has been owned for many years by two well-known local artists and their family and this interesting home reflects their artists’ personalities. We are pleased to be offering this property for sale.
