There's a certain look that comes with age, there's a certainty that you are no longer dealing with a misspent youth or the troubles of adolescence. Two hundred years in the life of a house is when they hit their stride, take on that patina and come in to their own. Come in through the front door, take your shoes off on the slate floor and look down the hall. The built ins already let you know that time has provided a space for everything. In to the kitchen, pine cabinets show off their grain, tile counters and gourmet appliances, lots of light and a vaulted ceiling open up the day. A breakfast nook stands before a pantry and laundry room. The dining room is formal in the right way, for large gatherings and lively debates over well prepared meals. Down the hall to the living room - sit before the fireplace or take a seat over by the windows. Sneak out to the screened porch to enjoy the great outdoors. Upstairs there are two bedrooms sharing a lovely bath. Then the master suite - an office, then bedroom - vaulted ceilings, hidden storage places, a perfect bath. Time to enjoy those golden years.
