"Sitting on a rolling 2.92-acre property, 552 Twin Lakes Road is a three-bed, four-bath home that was built in 1890 with a limestone foundation and was later added onto. From the school bell that hangs over the entrance to the sign that reads "hear instruction and be wise," the property's history as a place of education is clear. However, not too much seems to be known about its past."
"Step inside the home to the massive main living room, where high ceilings and wood-paneled walls convey its deep historic nature. Walls of double-height windows on both sides allow natural light to stream in, while the oversized working fireplace anchors the space in the center. Continue through a paneled wood door to the second main room, an oversized red space that continues the sense of grandeur with walls of built-in bookshelves and massive windows."
"Move into an addition to the home to find the kitchen, which features stainless steel appliances. A lower level features a spacious family room with two walls of floor-to-ceiling windows. That leads directly out to the gunite swimming pool, which is next to a stone patio that's ideal for lounging. "You can hang out down there and go in and out and pop in the pool and come back inside," said Klemm."
The Taconic School House sits on a rolling 2.92-acre parcel at 552 Twin Lakes Road in Salisbury, Connecticut, priced at $1.995 million. The property was built in 1890 on a limestone foundation and later expanded into a three-bedroom, four-bath home featuring historical details such as a school bell and a sign reading "hear instruction and be wise." Interior spaces include a massive main living room with high ceilings, an oversized second room with built-in bookshelves, a kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, and a lower-level family room that opens to a gunite swimming pool and stone patio. Owners have lived there 32 years but have limited knowledge of the home's full history.
