A most unusual offering on almost 4 acres in town opposite the Clark Art Institute. This includes a remarkably restored 18th century Georgian home built in 1764 with an early barn and shed, as well as a large open meadow surrounding this collection of buildings. Once located on Main St where the College President’s house now sits, the house was moved by oxen to its current location in 1800. ( RRBrooks.) Restoration efforts follow the Deerfield tradition of interior feather-edged sheathing and paneling, wide pine board flooring and a large colonial cooking fireplace with adjacent beehive oven in the keeping room. 4-5 bedrooms/3.5 updated baths. Walkable to all Williamstown has to offer including Spring St restaurants, galleries, Images theater, the College and the Public Library. A rare New England treasure awaits the discerning buyer who wants a piece of country land and history located in town. Acreage and frontage allow for an additional home site, well distanced from the main house and is incorproated into the list price.
