Step into a living legacy at The Dixon Homestead, a breathtaking 6+ acre estate cherished by 9 generations for more than 250 years. At the heart of this extraordinary historic sanctuary stands a magnificent circa-1760 Dutch stone farmhouse, beautifully complemented by an 1860 barn and 1855 grist mill ...a remarkable collection of structures that speaks to the property's rich & storied past. The residence masterfully balances 18th-century character with modern-day comfort & luxury. Hand-hewn beamed ceilings, decorative fireplaces and a gracious formal dining room with exquisite built-in cabinetry evoke a sense of timeless elegance.
