The Aaron Bronson home is a mid-to-late 18th century Cape built in the Federal style. For many years, the property was associated with the locally prominent Bronson family, early colonial settlers of this region. Aaron was a successful cordwainer (shoemaker) and buttonmaker. The home sits on 2.6 private acres with a rear meadow abutting the Larkin State Bridle Trail. A red multi-level barn serves as a two car garage with an EV charger and storage. In the past, horses and chickens were kept on the grounds in an additional barn. Electricity has been run to both barns. A 19th-century ell extends to the rear and is where the large eat-in kitchen with wood burning fireplace is located. Charm abounds here with exposed hand hewn beams on the ceiling and antique 12 over 8 windows. A second, more modern ell was added in 1987 housing the stunning primary bedroom suite with cathedral ceilings and a wall of French doors opening to a stone terrace overlooking the grounds. Skylights, two walk-in closets, a home office, and a stylish bath with dual pedestal sinks are found in this suite. Each of the four formal rooms have their own fireplaces. The main level bathroom features a re-tiled tub enclosure and abundant storage. Upstairs are two large bedrooms that share a Jack & Jill bath. Recent updates include refinishing the antique wideboard floors and refreshing the exterior of the home with new doors, siding repair and fresh paint. The roof was replaced around 2020.
