The circa 1780 Palmer House, built for revolutionary war veteran Captain Joshua Palmer, is a Federal-Georgian style home set on nearly seven picturesque green acres in the peaceful and historically significant hamlet of New Concord.
The house has been restored with love and care keeping many historical details such as the original wide plank floors and two wood-burning fireplaces. The meticulous restoration has also included accurately replicating historical details such as six-over-six windows throughout the house. Modern conveniences include blown-in insulation, central air, updated electrical systems, a standing seam metal roof, an irrigation system in the garden, and a generator for the entire house.
With 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, including first and second-floor master suites, an office, a library, formal dining and living rooms, and a large breakfast room, there is plenty of flexibility to accommodate large family gatherings or a spacious work-from-home set up. A large screened-in porch overlooks rolling hillsides, mature trees, and impressive perennial gardens.
A carefree and turnkey opportunity 2.5 hours from both New York City and Boston, 7 minutes to Chatham, and less than 30 minutes to Hudson and Great Barrington.
