Rev. James Johnson House was originally built in 1760 for the first minister of The Congregational Church of Easton. It has stayed in the same family for seven generations. This charming 2-story New England farmhouse is a well-preserved example of the type of structure erected in Easton in the late 1700s. This historic home features original architectural details, hardware, mantels, and wide plank floors of pumpkin pine and walnut. Over the years the original farmhouse has been updated, added on to, and expanded to meet the needs of today's lifestyle. These modern features include an airy open-concept eat-in kitchen with laundry area, 2 oversized walk-in closets, a 3-car-garage, a one-bedroom in-law apartment/legal rental over the garage, central air, and natural gas heat. This very unique property features a gazebo, stone walls, art studio (with electricity and plumbing in the wall), cobbler's shop, threshing room, potting shed, and carriage shed. All this, plus a very central location in walking distance to 10+ acre walking park, the senior center, library, arts center and more! Rare opportunity to own this piece of history and customize it to meet your needs and those of the generations to come! Public water in the street. Please enjoy the virtually staged images to envision how you might live in the home.
