Property Description

This extraordinary 1840 Shaker home served as a dwelling for the Shakers, as an inn for visitors, an office and store—used by the current owner as a spacious residence since 1956. The layout includes 4 finished living levels plus walk-up attic and a sub-basement for utilities. Preserved built-in cabinets and pegboard found throughout the house exemplify the fine craftsmanship that the Shakers were renowned for. A large living room features a fireplace and historic built-ins. There are numerous bedrooms, 2 full and 2 half baths, and a host of rooms that can serve as a home office, a studio, playroom, home gym, a workshop and more. A 3-season porch at 2nd level height, has a 3-bay garage below. Set on 2.3 acres on a quiet residential street in Harvard Shaker Village. Come discover Harvard–with plentiful conserved public lands, fine schools, a pond for swimming and boating, access to highway and rail, in a quaint town offering a wonderful sense of community.
