About this home
Welcome to the Shaker Village Second House, circa 1795. The generous floorplan includes a total of five levels, of which three are used as living space. The main central hall level features four well-proportioned rooms, each with original historic details including wide pine floors, Shaker peg rails, and a number of unique built-in features. Stairs leading to the floor below bring you to a welcoming family room with a woodstove, a fireplaced dining room, and a kitchen overlooking the rear yard and a laundry/mudroom. On the second level there are also four large rooms, plus a full bath. The walkup attic area is partially finished. Many restorations have been completed since 1968 with the goal of preserving original features while adding convenience and comfort.Set on a quiet acre with lawn gardens and trees abutting conservation lands, this home offers a glimpse into the unique Shaker History in a wonderful community of similarly preserved historic homes in the vibrant town of Harvard
