About this home

BUILT BEFORE AMERICA WAS A COUNTRY—AND STILL TELLING ITS STORY. Circa 1750, this remarkable Easton home blends historic soul with modern comfort across nearly 3,000 sq ft of living area. Wide plank pine floors, 3 original fireplaces, and a past tied to the Ames family create a sense of place you simply can’t replicate. The thoughtfully updated kitchen features custom cabinetry, a large island for hosting memorable gatherings, and a coveted AGA gas range for serious cooks. With 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths, the layout offers flexibility while staying true to its character. Outside, enjoy level grounds overlooking wooded wetlands—offering peace, privacy, and birdsong from your covered patio. A granite wall and ornate wrought-iron gate welcome you home, while the detached garage/workshop (complete with kiln) offers space to create, store, or tinker. Historic charm. Modern living. Truly one-of-a-kind. Close to Ames Long Pond and historic downtown Easton. Own a piece of Easton's history.
