Steeped in history, The Colonel Nathaniel Wade House was built in 1727. Colonel Wade drilled Ipswich Minutemen on the nearby South Village Green and led them to war at Bunker Hill. The stairs to the attic are worn from the soldiers who adjourned there after the drills for refreshment and to plot the Boston Tea Party! This is one of Ipswich's treasured homes! Elegant period features meld with modern amenities and a recent dramatic family room addition. A 3 year young garage/studio building with finished loft overlooks a fabulous gunite pool. Six fireplaces and the kind of wide plank pine floors that are rarely milled today distinguish this warm and inviting property. A perfect venue for a gracious in-town lifestyle, this gem offers well proportioned rooms with high ceilings and a flow that enhances entertaining. A walk up attic is currently configured as a studio workshop for the artist in residence and offers exciting expansion possibilities. Set back on a generous 1+ acre lot. The well tended yard features mature plantings and lovely gardens as well as a substantial garden shed with its own deck. Potential for A Bed & Breakfast conversion. This home is a rare find!
