The Kit Matteson House: A stunning example of historic preservation matched with modern comforts -RI Monthly magazine. Built in 1740 by Silas Matteson and later transformed by his son Kit into Kit's Tavern, it's been said some of the most formidable Rhode Islanders during the American Revolution caroused at the bustling tavern. Original doors and hardwood floors, exposed beams, blacksmith-forged hardware, and 7 wood-burning fireplaces transport you back to simpler times. On the flip side, this home boasts today's advanced and efficient systems including HVAC/Central Air with UV anti-allergy, smart thermostat and security, and well water filtration with softener (all installed 2019). Home chefs will delight in the Gourmet Kitchen with original hearth, a Butler's Pantry, granite counters and marble backsplash, and premier stainless appliances by Viking, Electrolux, and Bosch. Bathrooms are updated to exacting standards. The awesome walk-out Lower Level with tons of natural light offers a huge stone fireplace as a backdrop for any type of additional living space you need. Home sits on 2+ acre corner lot with rolling lawn, mature landscape, blooming gardens, and several "cottage" structures ideal for a garage, greenhouse, home office, playroom, or artist's studio. If that's not enough, the private, resort-style inground pool offers a great escape for relaxation and fun. Located in a Top 10 RI school district. Call today for your private tour through history!
