500 E. Mill Road is a beautifully restored historic residence that blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates, set among some of the area’s most sought-after historic homes. Dating back to the early 1800s and once associated with the historic Sunnybrook estate, this remarkable stone home offers a rare combination of history, craftsmanship, and modern livability. A wide center hallway welcomes you into the home, where the dining room and kitchen are set just off to one side and multiple living and entertaining spaces unfold to the other. The kitchen features Bosch appliances and generous space for everyday living and entertaining. Just steps away, a walk-in pantry with a second refrigerator provides additional storage and convenience. Toward the rear of the home is the great room, part of the original structure, offering a true sense of history highlighted by exposed wood beams and a massive fireplace, a defining focal point of the space. A separate mini bar off the great room creates an ideal setting for entertaining. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features a separate sitting area, walk-in closet, and an ensuite bath with heated floors. Two spacious secondary bedrooms, a shared bath, and convenient second-floor laundry complete the level. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms and a shared bathroom, providing excellent options for guests, home office, or extended living needs. Throughout the home, original details, including wide-plank hardwood floors, multiple fireplaces, custom millwork, and built-ins, have been carefully preserved and paired with tasteful renovations designed for today’s lifestyle. The newly added two-car garage connects to a functional mud room entry. Additional modern conveniences include multi-zone central air conditioning. Set on beautifully landscaped grounds with mature plantings, this home presents a rare opportunity to own a truly special historic property thoughtfully updated for modern living.
