About 29 Union Street

Built Circa 1765 as a home for the village blacksmith Benjamin Handy, this home retains the character, detail, and history of the original house with the addition of an amazing modern rear wing that includes an open floor plan kitchen, dining, and family room -- offering the best of the old and the new. The new addition also includes a spacious pantry/laundry, mudroom, full bath, and access to a side porch that is screened and heated for year-round enjoyment. The remainder of the lower level contains two bedrooms, a powder room, and a living room with the original fireplace now converted to gas. Upstairs has two bedrooms and another full bath. Enhancing this village charmer is a serene, custom-fenced private retreat offering beautiful, low-maintenance landscaping perfect for outdoor entertaining and relaxing. The centerpiece of the outdoor hardscape is a custom-built stone fireplace with wood storage and plenty of room to gather around the fire on chilly evenings. The barn/garage has recently been tastefully remodeled to add a second car garage bay and a heated upstairs loft that could serve as a hobby or workout room, office, or studio. New hardscaping and landscaping have also been added to unify the outbuilding with the exterior of the main house. The secluded rear of the property is a lush greenscape with mature trees and plantings, and offering a view of the waterfall.
