From the moment you come down the lane to Clover’s Cottage, you will begin to breathe more gently, slow your heart rate, and rully remove yourself from the hustle and bustle of your daily life. Walk down the sidewalk to the cottage, and you may notice the covered front porch swing, the picnic table where you’ll enjoy an evening dinner, or the open campfire and comfy chairs for storytelling and s’mores. A closer look may reveal the shaded hammock, perfect for reading, and the original working hand well pump where children can have hours of fun. A small makes fishing easy, and a supply of firewood awaits you in the wood shed.
This is only the beginning of what Clover’s Cottage has to offer. There are quiet walks down the path to Pine Creek, where you can swim or float on an inner tube, or you can stick closer to home and listen to nature babble in the little brook right outside the front door. There is a canoe to float on the pond or a covered footbridge to explore the nearby woods to search for signs of deer, turkeys, and other hidden animals. Pick some blueberries or wild raspberries for your breakfast cereal or take a walk down some of the many miles of country roads surrounding the property.
Clover’s Cottage was converted from an old flax mill built around 1887 and sits along a stream and pond. The first floor boasts a cozy, well-equipped eat-in kitchen, a laundry room, and a convenient half-bathroom. There is a comfortable and rustic living room with a wood fireplace built from old reclaimed schoolhouse bricks. Because of its origin, the first floor is built from local field stones and has 18″ thick walls (no need for air conditioning!) and a counter made from a cast metal slab from the original flax grinding equipment.
The second floor opens to a small sitting room surrounded by three bedrooms. Each room is decorated in warm earthy tones and local antiques that evoke country charm and a restful atmosphere.
The sitting room has original wide plank floors and is a place for you to sit and enjoy a book or watch a movie. A screened sliding door opens to an expansive deck overlooking the stocked pond. The outdoor deck is 10′ X 36′ and includes chairs, loungers, and a small bar.
The luxurious and spacious bathroom is nestled between two bedrooms, a layout typical of homes of this age. It evokes the feeling of a country spa, with a beautifully restored claw-foot soaking tub that allows for complete relaxation. There is a walk-in shower large enough for two, with a bench and rain shower head. The bathroom is fully tiled, and soft, fluffy towels offer the best of modern-day comforts with timeless rustic treasures.
The expansive primary bedroom offers a queen bed, dresser, and closet, and a day bed that can be utilized for lounging or sleeping. A large table at one end of the room will allow you to enjoy card games, crafts, or conversation with family and friends. An exterior door in this bedroom offers a rear exit from the cottage or entrance to the deck.
The second bedroom has a double bed, dresser, nightstand, and original wide plank floors. This room also has a closet and an entrance to the bathroom.
The third bedroom has a set of twin bunk beds and a dresser with entrance to the bathroom and original wide plank floors.
The property also provides an outdoor storage shed (the Duck Shack) that holds all the makings for an outdoor vacation full of fun. Life vests, canoe oars, refills for the night torches, a croquet set, bocce ball, and more are ready for your entertainment.
The ground floor of Clover’s Cottage features a cozy, fully equipped eat-in kitchen, a laundry room, and a convenient half-bath. The rustic living room centers around a charming wood-burning fireplace made from reclaimed schoolhouse bricks. The stone construction and thick 18″ walls help keep the space naturally cool and quiet.
