The melding of the convenience of a premiere Village residence with the privacy and peace of a country estate is a rare balance. The John Arnold Cottle House achieves just such a balance. The three bedroom two story brick Federal home, built in 1811, has a prominent position on the main street in South Woodstock hamlet. It’s setting belies the unique qualities the 2.7 acres offers. A drive to the lower level two car garage separates the main house and the renovated Kingley Barn, a two bedroom with loft guest house with a deck overlooking the Kedron Brook. There is a timber bridge crossing the Kedron Brook which accesses the open field and meadow and the two bay barn. The 450 feet of frontage on the Kedron Brook is an ideal tranquil retreat to enjoy the water element, firepit and surrounding environment with complete privacy. The John Arnold Cottle House has been fully renovated/restored with all of the best systems and finishes. The newer addition on the rear of the house has a gourmet kitchen, large brick fireplace, and relaxed living space.
