Once the home of Captain John Collin III and said to be Hillsdale's second oldest home, this historic c1788 Shaker built colonial sits on 17 rolling acres of sprawling green hillside, gardens, and fruit trees. Meticulously restored to its original glory spanning a 25-year renovation, you'll find period details such as 12 over 12 light friendly windows, now extinct Connecticut Brown Pine wide board floors, marble foundation, fireplaces, and front steps, hand-hewn beams and curved walls, and original hand-carved moldings and hardware. Modern comforts such as the open chef's kitchen, security system, walk-in closets and four-season sunroom with radiant heat and air conditioning make this the perfect country retreat. Surely, it's new owner will agree with it and present many years of contentment. Two hours from NYC and 20 minutes from both Hudson and Great Barrington.
