Description

Ellis Hollow takes its name from its first settler, Peleg Ellis, who arrived in 1799. In 1808, Ellis constructed a larger home in front of his original log cabin—now known as “Headwaters, ” located at 1735 Ellis Hollow Road. Welcome to Headwaters, where history meets modern comfort in this beautifully preserved Federal-style home. Thoughtfully renovated over the years, the property seamlessly blends historic character with contemporary living. A carefully designed addition completed in 2001, with architect Vincent Mulcahy and builder John Golay, reflects an exceptional attention to detail—matching original siding, cornices, interior doors, window casings, and stair railings with remarkable precision. The result is a timeless residence that honors its past while offering modern ease. The gourmet kitchen opens into a warm and inviting sitting area, with French doors that overlook the scenic grounds. A spacious mudroom with laundry adds everyday practicality, while upstairs, a library offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape. A dedicated studio space, complete with a full darkroom, provides endless creative possibilities. The original home features a formal entry, flanked by a large and elegant dining room with built-ins and wide-plank floors. A charming sitting room with a fireplace provides a warm and inviting space to relax. Upstairs, the home thoughtfully blends its historic roots with modern expansion. The original two bedrooms and full bath are complemented by two additional spacious bedrooms and an expansive primary bath, complete with a soaking tub and abundant storage. The beautiful property spans over six and a half acres, featuring mature trees and an array of thoughtfully cultivated gardens that create a serene, park-like setting. A large garage with a full second floor offers abundant potential for a workshop, studio, or additional storage. In addition, a charming small barn provides the perfect space for tools, hobbies, or even housing animals.
