Description
Built in 1720, with 1780 and 1860 additions, every inch of the joseph pierson house celebrates its heritage. floorboards over a foot in width, roughly hewn ceiling beams, extra deep window sills and, most notably, a massive cooking fireplace with a beehive oven are impressive features of this beloved home. totaling 1.41 acres, the land surrounding the stone house feels like a country farmstead with its long gravel driveway, flower patches, and a barn that may be restored over time. the home’s interior is a blissful balance of romantic and rustic, a mix of cozy spaces and generous rooms washed in natural light. the kitchen has a vaulted ceiling over ample granite countertops and french doors beside the breakfast area. an exposed brick fireplace adds even more texture to the adjoining dining room. while the inviting “keeping room” is the warm heart of the home, the west-facing living room is also an elegant, welcoming spot to gather. the second floor features a large bedroom and darling office, served by a full bath accessible via two staircases. the third floor offers a surprisingly spacious bedroom and bathroom suite. some say the pierson house was a stop on the underground railroad. while that is possible, what is certain is the property’s significance as one of the area’s oldest residences with its remarkable random stone construction with 30-inch thick walls. this local treasure is directly adjacent to mercer meadows, a 1,600-acre park system with 20+ mile bicycle and pedestrian recreational trails. just around the bend is the popular terhune orchards’ market, winery, and farm.
