Unique contemporary on a rural road near the Nashua River Rail Trail conservation area. Architect Gifford Pierce set his Redwood dream home on an arrow footprint pointing due north. The angular design carves large open spaces and numerous decks and balconies which bring the wooded landscape inside. Bedroom areas are on floors 1 & 3, separated by the grand 2 story living room and dining/galley kitchen area Separate entrance for the first floor rooms makes a great in-law, accessory apt. set up. Large, private fenced yard with firepit invites you to sit back and enjoy this special place. A circular driveway leads you to the 2 car garage. Galley kitchen needs updating. Exterior in need of paint and some repair. Sellers have taken this into consideration with list price.
