Description
The Historic Daughter's of the American Revolution (DAR) Mansion was constructed in 1807 by Tilley Parker to serve as housing for Vermont's early legislature & tavern. A master preservationist undertook a complete restoration of the original dwelling in 1995 with an architecturally sympathetic addition using original materials combined with elements crafted using authentic hand tools. The result blends the patina of an antique structure with an aesthetically elegant kitchen, baths & modern mechanical systems offering the best of yesterday & today. Living & dining rooms feature wide board floors, antique brick fireplaces, crown moldings & chair rails, all enclosed by airy 9+ foot high ceilings. The library is warmed by a 3rd fireplace, flanked by hand-made mahogany bookshelves & raised paneling for a gracious comfortable retreat. Generous country kitchen is outfitted with professional style appliances, granite surfaces & custom cherry cabinets & opens into a comfortable family gathering room framed floor to ceiling with windows flooding the space with warm natural light throughout the year. Upstairs accommodations include 2 guest bedrooms, each with fireplace & private bath, as well as a master bedroom suite with dressing area, bath accented by marble & tile and a spacious bedroom with elevated tray ceiling. Two finished rooms on the lower level with bathroom provide space for seasonal gatherings or a media/exercise room. Walk to all Village amenities!
