About this Property
French-Swiss chalet built by Nathaniel Brittan in 1870 perfectly blends authentic elegance with modern upgrades. Known as the Manor House, this County Historical Site benefits from the Mills Act, offering significant property tax savings. The front door's solid French Oak was brought around the horn from Normandy in pre-Panama Canal days. This distinguished home boasts intricate molding, original stained glass, beamed ceilings, hardwood flooring, and a beautifully carved staircase banister, showcasing its timeless elegance and old world charm. The library entry opens to the formal living room. Paces away you have the spacious family room and grand formal dining room. Beautiful remodeled, gourmet kitchen with slate flooring, and breakfast nook. A half bath, laundry room and mudroom are located just down the hall and lead to the attached oversized 2-car garage. Tucked away near the front of the house is a bedroom and full bathroom. Upstairs you have the primary suite with elaborate fireplace. Three additional bedrooms share a full hall bathroom. A bonus room and full bathroom are located above the garage. The outdoor living space is equally inviting, with a covered back deck and spacious yard, complete with an outdoor fireplace. This home is a rare Peninsula treasure!
