Welcome to a Lincoln antique with a story to tell and the systems of a modern home. Built around 1824 and lovingly cared for by the same family for 30 years, this four-bedroom home sits on 2.36 acres of gardens, lawn and woods, with a summer house and barn waiting to become your favorite places. Inside, custom millwork, window seats, hardwood floors and three fireplaces give every room warmth and character. The kitchen is made for gathering, with a large island, plenty of counter space and panoramic windows, and it opens to a generous family room with a fireplace and French doors to the outside. The showstopper is the wood-paneled solarium, with a soaring vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, brick and walls of windows that bring the garden right inside. A cozy study with a fireplace, a dining room with a skylight and a first-floor bedroom round out the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat with its own fireplace, window seats overlooking the grounds, a walk-in closet and a full bath with a double vanity. Two more bedrooms and a second full bath are nearby, and the lower level adds a playroom with built-ins. Step outside and the property opens up. The detached summer house, with a woodstove, brick floor and its own patio, is the perfect spot for morning coffee, guests or quiet reading. The barn is ready for a studio, workshop or hobby space. This home also lives lightly. Two solar systems with 60 panels produced 12,744 kWh last year: 16 panels are owned outright, and 44 are on a prepaid lease with no monthly payment through 2032. High-efficiency heat pumps provide heating and cooling, with a 2022 gas boiler, and the roof is about 4 years old. Close to Lincoln's trails, conservation land, schools, and commuter rail, this is a rare chance to own a piece of Lincoln history, ready for its next chapter. Come see it for yourself!
