- Description: Dorset's "Phantom Schoolhouse" transitioned into a wonderful residence that boasts a quality of life all its own. The intimate indoor outdoor spaces speak for themselves as thought, care and nurture evident. What this small plot of enriched soils of this land gives in garden space amazes. Precious specimen plantings as well as protective privacy with organic screening. Enter the residence and an immediate sense of peace whispers. 9.5 foot ceiling on the first floor with a wall of high light-filled south facing new windows offer mountain views and moonlight wonder. Efficiency improvements have been done such as new windows and heat pump heating/cooling...The character of wainscot covered walls and original hard maple flooring are lovely. There is a den/bedroom on the main floor and the efficient kitchen open to the living and dining. The bedrooms and a new tile bath noted on the second level. Substantial storage is noted through knee wall access. Truly a special offering. Dorset Schoolhouse!
