Privately cited on the edge of a bluff facing south over the village of Hartland with views of Mt. Ascutney and north across a pond to abutting conservation land is this gracious 5-bedroom 3.5-bath brick federal with 6 fireplaces on 11 acres. Built in the early 1800’s, all the woodwork in the main house is original including the detailed chimney pieces, the south entry hall with semicircular staircase, exterior doorway with overhead fanlight and rosettes and the 2nd story Palladian window. With 10-foot ceilings on the first level and 9 ½ feet on the second, natural light streams into every room thru large 6 over 6 double-hung windows. In 1942, artist Isle Bischoff purchased the property as a refuge from Manhattan to host and entertain other artists and to house her art and antiques. In 1963, she added a new two-story Ell with matching brick and interior finishes featuring an upstairs family room and Bischoff’s porcelain room over a first-floor study, bedroom and bathroom. A separate art studio features a large north window, fireplace and apartment - partially framed using a local dismantled barn. Outside, there is an in-ground swimming pool with surrounding patio, a detached 2-car garage, and a 3-bay 6-car garage with overhead storage. A single story 2-bedroom caretaker’s home is on the east end. Split rail fencing and tall maple trees flank the driveway. On the market for the first time in 83 years, this is a rare and distinguished offering.
