Property Description
Built in 1869, shortly after the Civil War ended and almost 60 years before Rubber Barons like the Litchfields (The Anchorage) and The Seiberlings (Stan Hywet); 971 Merriman Road stood proudly overlooking the Merriman Valley. Bluestone walkway and steps lead to the front door. Foyer with tile flooring, oak doors, and custom millwork. The large family/living room features crown moldings, 7 1/2 inch baseboards, oak floors, and French doors which lead to the side yard. A large kitchen with white cabinetry, stainless appliances including double wall ovens, pantry wall, and mahogany topped island with gas cooktop. The dining room has a second set of French doors which lead to the covered porch with IPE flooring. The laundry room has tile flooring and quartz countertops with ample space to fold clothes. You enter the mud room from the back door which has custom lockers and tongue and groove wall paneling. The office/study has a stone fireplace and six windows to let in lots of natural light. A half bath completes the first floor. The second floor has four carpeted bedrooms and three of them have vaulted/cathedral ceilings. The master en-suite has a double vanity, marble floor, and frameless glass shower enclosure. The tiled bathroom serves the other three bedrooms. There is a two-car detached garage. The .81 acre lot overlooks the Merriman Valley. Agent is related to Seller.
