About this home
Cherry Walk, circa 1781, is sited on a lovely knoll and built upon a high English Basement. The main house features handsome Flemish-bond brickwork, a new wood-shake gambrel roof, and two elegant chimneys that flank each side of this 18th-century Tidewater Cape. Original doors, floors, hardware, and moldings are lovely. 95+ acres of pristine farmland, including mature hardwoods and pine forests, provide abundant habitats for all types of waterfowl, upland birds, wild turkey, deer, foxes and other wildlife. In recent years, the current owners have embarked upon a sensitive and monumental restoration of the main house, new systems, fencing, new roofing and pollinator gardens. New drainage system around the English Basement completed 2022-2023. An in-ground salt pool with a new salt system provides a wonderful focal point in the garden and a relaxing respite on summer days! Water features include natural streams that meander through part of the woodland with wood duck boxes and a separate farm pond. A rare and remarkable assemblage of historic dependencies original to the property offers a rare glimpse into farm life in the late 18th century. Located in the Millers Tavern Rural Historic District of Essex County, the offering of this very handsome home presents a unique buying opportunity to those seeking a fully restored and renovated, turn-key oasis.
