Property Description
For those seeking to write their next chapter, this home has a biography like no other. Discover a storied property that has been respectfully updated while preserving its rich character. Set on 4.12 acres, the original Gum Spring Tavern, circa 1790, is the picture of Southern Colonial architecture with its wide covered porches and stately columns. In 1994, the current caretakers happened upon the opportunity to merge their ancestral Long Meadow Farmhouse, established in Chester circa 1650. Long Meadow was slated to be bulldozed so the youngest heir decided to undertake a project for the books. He dismantled & moved the entire family Farmhouse to merge seamlessly into the Tavern. The first floor with wide plank heart pine floors features a music room, spacious eat in kitchen, grand living room, dining room fit for 20, and home office. All but one room features a fireplace. Upstairs, there are five beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with a full bathroom--perfectly suited for a B&B--as well as a library & two more fireplaces. Step down to the dry basement level to find the Tavern's original winter kitchen complete with the 7th fireplace, laundry, utilities, storage & garage with new electric door. Three handsome porches are perfect for entertaining guests or surveying the lush established grounds, a split rail fence outlining the property, a decorative well house, an 1820's corn crib, as well as the two story barn with electrical, plumbing, two more fireplaces(!) and concrete floor, begging for a workshop or rustic party venue. The property is self-sustaining with fully paid off solar panels, freshly inspected septic & well; grounds for raising vegetables, farm animals and working outbuildings to support a myriad of commercial pursuits. Dual zone heat pumps & water heater (@2020); freshly painted standing seam roof; Hardiplank siding & Anderson windows (@2012); new Pex plumbing supply lines throughout (2024). Opportunities like this don't occur often. Where shall the story of this special home go from here?
