Breathtaking. I would curl up with a good book. Listen to the crackling fire and admire the craftsmanship of years gone by. I have an old soul and this tugs at my heartstrings.

[@bonniemiller9197]

Oh be still my prim heart. I have never seen an open hearth with 2 bake ovens. It makes my fingers itch to get baking there. I am a trained open hearth cook and have been fortunate to bake in 7 different historic homes. Love love love this. Thankyou.

[@camiray2687]

I'll do dishes!

[@dottiebaker6623]

I haven't cooked on an open hearth in as many places as you, but it strikes me that there can't be many of us in the USA who are trained open hearth cooks. I learned at the Genesee Country Museum in upstate NY many years ago. I only cooked on the open hearth, but never got to use the bake ovens. I just watched. Like you, I've never seen a house with 2 bake ovens. Even in the big wealthy house, we only had one. I remember cooking on the open hearth as immensely satisfying and very tasty.

[@bonniemiller9197]

My training began at the Genesee Country Museum also. But work began at Wyoming County Fair in Pike NY An 1810 home is on the Fair Grounds and we cook from 1-9 Mon thru Sat. I have been blessed to be a part of that for almost 30 yrs. Your'e correct there are not that many of us. We could be besties!!

[@bonniemiller9197]

@@dottiebaker6623 Well I also was taught at the Genesee Country Village many years ago when I was also a docent there. But the real work began at the Wyoming County Fair in Pike NY. An 1810 home is on the grounds and the week of fair we cook in teams from 1-9 as the public comes through and watches. I have been blessed to cook for over 30 yrs there. We could be Besties!!!!

@@bonniemiller9197 Amazing! When we you there? I was there during the summers of 1987 and 1988. I loved that place.

[@stephenholmes5362]

That is the best shade of blue to use in an early house, love these videos. Thank you

[@bonniemiller9197]

I used that shade of blue in my pre civil war farmhouse in the dining room and never tired of it. Good call.

[@doccalitri]

Love this New England home. So beautiful to see everything I am really speechless! Thank you!!

[@kimhorton6109]

Very handsome home. Those fireplaces are incredible.

[@PigletSaysHello]

What a beautiful house inside and out. Awesome how they kept it original yet updated it enough to be comfortable today.

[@patriciacinea3097]

Speechless is a good word to describe this beauty. So many fireplaces, rooms with nice details.

[@paulabrown257]

Oh my this home is so lovely and decorated beautifully with just the right touches ❤

[@joelnazaretian7513]

This house is stunning! The owners have impeccable taste with authentic looking "period correct" furnishings and decor, and still blend in todays conveniences, like that Master Bath! Incredible period home...I should be so blessed! 🥰🙏💯👍♥️

[@SCCL1000]

Stunning home for sure, and a privilege to live within it's walls. I would change only one thing---the modern bathtub, even though it is a comfort.

[@karrenpopovics2780]

Wow..a library!

[@pagano1905]

A jewel!

[@diannelavoie5385]

Born and brought up in Southeastern Massachusetts, and I absolutely love these colonial era homes. And New England has a ton of them. That and lots of stone walls. Hey, we had to do SOMETHING with all those rocks.

[@charlmaynehawthorne9372]

IT REALLY EATS THE MOBILE HOME , I LIVE BY FAR. IT'S A GREAT DESIGN, AND SO MUCH ROOM , ITS SIMPLY GREAT.

[@maryridchuk1292]

Pure perfection! Enjoyed the tour, music, decor…no chatter ❤ thank you

[@heatherdeavalon]

My family lived in that area at that time. I wonder if they saw it being built? Beautiful ❤

[@robinrhea6125]

Gorgeous.. I will watch over and over

A beautiful house....if only the walls could talk...so many stories to tell....revolutionary war, civil war, townships come & gone...families & neighbors, cows & chickens...thank you❤

[@heritagehall6243]

Discipline and balanced vision of beauty

[@bangormaine3129]

Just love it!!! Warmth, beauty, and incredible workmanship ... Nothing built like it today.

[@cindysteffens8065]

Stunning!

[@SpanishEclectic]

Not sure what was up with the aqua sink in the kitchen, but otherwise I liked how the color palette was cohesive from room to room, and in keeping with the period. Decor doesn't have to be like a museum, but this place looks really beautiful and comfortable as well. The extra oven spaces in the hearth were so interesting, and I like how they were lit with candles. I also like how this one didn't feel dreary, as the low ceilings and dark wood rooms can.

[@judithmccrea2601]

It was to blend in with the fake wood Formica counter top 😊

[@Ellie.12866]

I liked the sink!

[@user-jw1ot1ex9w]

We visited Guildford CT at Thanksgiving 2023…wish I had seen this first! But the area is so beautiful and so primitive!

[@williamandcynthialyons3841]

Beautiful.

[@JudithPurney]

What a beautiful period home.....sympathetically done with restraint, but with livability and warmth!

Beautiful i owned a seventeen 20 home. I loved it antique

[@scottjohnson6173]

That was Beautiful, thank you for posting it.

[@wandastarr-hk2ig]

Absolutely stunning! Only thing I would change is the kitchen--those cupboards need a fresh paint job + I'd have green, not more of the dried blood red. But what a cosy, beautiful, gracious home!

[@user-mp3jy4qu9s]

So beautiful! The rugs are outstanding. Blessings and prayers...

[@dottiebaker6623]

When I die, this will be my heaven.

[@katherineaustin2477]

Beautiful lovely home

[@DeannaMoyers]

I think the use of color was very well done....but then again I like color rather than dark and dreary interiors. A beautiful home that you can't believe was built that early

[@michelez715]

Perfection!

[@trentdotson1522]

I reckon the turquoise sink was a holdover. It’s actually a good foil for the “historic” red. A little more of the color would give it intentionality.

[@user-ov6bv9cn1o]

I don’t care for the sink. It’s a wonderful old house though.

[@Ellie.12866]

I noticed that sink right away. A quirky detail. I would have kept it too. It's such a beautiful colour 😊

[@SD-nh5yr]

I wish the bathroom wasn't so modern.

[@robertwoodpa6463]

If I were young I would buy houses in places like Beverly and Salem that have been remuddled with vinyl or aluminum siding and have new windows and would restore them back to original. That is where the value is.

[@marysterrett6266]

Breathtaking!❤

[@janet8982]

I love the natural walls. It’s a lovely old home. I don’t care for the blue and gray walls. It kind of ruined it for me.

[@diunitedkingdom7302]

I enjoy these videos very much but I am wondering if it would be possible to have different music please? I watch them with the sound off. Thank you

[@moniquedeitz4356]

The owners of this beautiful residence have a talent for attractive furniture placement and decoration. It's understandable why they would want a more modern bathroom, but it was rather jarring to see. Overall, though, it's a pleasingly done home.

[@greensage395]

The Bathroom is awesome! Such a surprise!

[@francoisbundock]

it is a place with interesting features but in my book I would not qualify it as speechless. Sorry

[@SD-nh5yr]

Is it haunted??

[@robertvavasour6255]

It has two known ghosts, a Puritan woman in a brown dress and a member of the family that died in the house the day after a Revolutionary War battle across the road.

[@ricklatouch2263]

I’d be disappointed if it wasn’t haunted.

[@Tunick1902]

The exact opposite of the kind of houses I like.

[@decnijfkris3706]

who lives there?

[@robertvavasour6255]

We do. Come visit sometime.

[@karrenpopovics2780]

Wow..a library!
