Former Senator Charles J. Link (R) Charlestown, architect, and builder was the original builder/owner of this wonderfully restored period Dutch Colonial. Built in 1933, rich with local history, this is the first time the property is on the real estate market. This stately home is prestigiously sited in the Cross Mills Traditional Village District, and is as well known to Charlestown residents as Sen. Link was (once referred as "Mr. Charlestown"). After his retirement his time was spent helping "the people of Charlestown progress in a manner which afforded vast growth coupled with undying respect for his town's natural resources and rural aesthetics". Senator Link's grandson, the present owner, demonstrates the same commitment to this property. He has captured and upheld the authentic essence of the 1930's era. The original oak floors & detailed woodwork trim have been beautifully preserved; and, the kitchen has restored linoleum flooring & counters. The first floor has a welcoming foyer and hall, living room with fireplace, dining room, kitchen, den, office, library, sunroom, lavette, and an in-law apartment. The second floor is home to the master bedroom with bath, two bedrooms, and another bath. The attic stairs leads to two more 'bonus' rooms with endless possibilities. The lower level has a drafting room, bar, laundry room, and utility room. The three car garage has a greenhouse for garden preparation. The house is set back on the property affording an expansive front lawn which is beautifully manicured. The plantings are mature, and the gardens exquisite. Trumpet vines and roses adorn pergolas, trellises, and walls around the patio, house, and in-law apartment. Enjoy a short walk to Ninigret (coastal/salt) Pond for all boating & fishing activities. A very special property filled with history, honor, and respect.
