About this home
Nestled on a tranquil wooded lot in Barrington, NH this charming post and beam home offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and comfort. Enter through the quaint covered porch which leads to the convenient breezeway/mudroom with a coveted Dutch Door to the main home. With stunning wide pine flooring throughout, this home exudes warmth and character. A large front to back living room and a full bathroom complete the first floor. For added comfort there are mini-splits that provide a second source of heat and air conditioning in the warmer months. Owned solar panels will keep your electric costs low, as this home also features an electric car charger. Upstairs you will find a recently painted primary bedroom, beautifully updated bathroom and three large additional bedrooms. The back sliding doors off the living room lead to a large deck, a new stone patio, and a private wooded backyard. The oversized 24X28 garage provides ample storage, ideal for vehicles, equipment, or a workshop. In the walkout basement you will find a pellet stove which serves as a third heat source. Head outside to the mature perennial gardens and the private wood-fired sauna for relaxation and rejuvenation. Just a short walk to Swain's Lake, offering pristine waterfront enjoyment. Conveniently located near Routes 4, 9, and 125, and within easy reach of the University of NH, the Seacoast, and The Lakes Region. Make this home yours for the holidays.
