About this home
Welcome to 187 Back River Road, a private estate property set on over 12 acres in one of Bedford’s most sought-after locations. Tucked back among mature landscaping and expansive manicured grounds, this classic Colonial offers a rare combination of space, privacy, and timeless character. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the home features generously sized rooms, formal living and dining spaces, custom millwork, hardwood flooring, and an executive-style layout rarely found today. The dramatic wood-paneled living room with fireplace creates a warm and sophisticated gathering space, while the sun-filled porch overlooks the backyard and pool area, offering a peaceful connection to the outdoors. Outside, approximately 1.5 acres of open lawn provide exceptional recreational space, complemented by an in-ground pool, mature trees, and Pointer Club Brook winding through the rear of the property. Whether hosting summer gatherings, enjoying quiet evenings by the pool, or simply appreciating the natural setting, this property offers a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find. Additional features include a finished lower level, 3-car garage, and finished space above the garage offering flexibility for future guest space, home office use, hobbies, or extended living potential. While offering opportunity for cosmetic modernization, the home’s scale, craftsmanship, setting, and layout provide an incredible foundation for the next owner to personalize over time. Conveniently located just minutes from Bedford amenities, shopping, dining, schools, and major commuter routes, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special property in Southern New Hampshire.
