Elegant, Iconic Gambrel Colonial On Lyme Street

This elegant, iconic, Gambrel Cape on Lyme Street was originally built in 1710 by Justin Smith. In 1998 the house was lovingly restored by the owner, the late Brad Sweet and renowned historic antique renovator, Skip Broom. The main house, workshop and cottage, where Impressionist Matilda Browne painted in the early 1900's, make up some of the property which sits on a little over an acre. In 2006, the Post and Beam, Gambrel addition was adjoined. The kitchen and eating area take up half of that along with a two car garage, foyer and mudroom. Upstairs are two bedrooms in the antique part of the house and a sewing room that could easily fit another. The Master suite is stunning with room for a Baby Grand. The fireplace brings a delightful ambience to evenings spent lounging in the great room that opens to a balcony. Overlooking the marsh and manicured gardens, the suite includes a walk-in closet and two dressing areas. Separate from the house is a workshop/studio/office which is plumbed and could easily be converted into a guest cottage. One of the most exciting parts of the house is the patio that can be completely encased during cooler weather. The house details are a wonder including the stunning doors in the formal dining room which came from a pub in England.
