Step into history at Mulberry Hill, home to the exquisitely restored Ellis House—an 1800s Greek Revival farmhouse where timeless charm meets modern luxury. Thoughtfully reimagined by a prior owner & preservationist, this residence showcases hand-hewn 1830s beams, soaring 12-foot ceilings, and a gourmet kitchen designed for both beauty and function. The kitchen is anchored by a stunning island crafted from 2-inch poplar boards salvaged from the original ceiling and features a triple copper sink, copper faucets, a Sharp warming drawer, Miele dishwasher with on-demand water heater, and a concealed Sub-Zero refrigerator. No expense was spared in blending historic elements with today’s conveniences. Cabinetry includes custom ca. 1800s reproduction pieces made of 50% reclaimed poplar, finished with milk paint, Benjamin Moore paint, and triple-coated tung oil. The space is accented by bronze and Bennington bin pulls, slate backsplash, soapstone countertops, and a copper pot filler. The keeping room off the kitchen features a ca.1830 fireplace and offers a cozy, inviting space. Inside, period elements continue with arched doors, a ca. 1830 fireplace mantle, and a beautiful study/library balcony featuring over 100 spindles from circa 1860. The home has been modernized with 12-gauge wiring, buried electric service, fire-rated kitchen walls, and high-end appliances including a 60” Wolf dual fuel range and commercial-grade vent hood with an external blower. Outside, the property includes the beautifully reconstructed Sanders Log Cabin, originally from the early 1800s and believed to be the first meeting place of Mill Creek Baptist Church. This serene retreat features Northern White Pine and Southern Poplar flooring in tribute to the North-South union of its past inhabitants. Updates include HVAC, Pella glass doors, a triple picture window, cable, and plumbing, making it an ideal creative space or guest retreat.This one-of-a-kind estate is historic without the historic overlays.
