About this home
c1820 Cape on 9.3+/- ACRES w/ 630' of paved Rd Frontage, 800'+ Frontage on Churchill BROOK, a small POND & a c2013 ADDED/Remodeled 1st Floor MASTER Bedroom (22'x16') w/ en-Suite HANDICAP BATH (13'x9'), & its Own 16'x8' 4-Season SUN Room opening onto the side porch! The ATTACHED 22'x48' (auto-open & direct entry)1-car GARAGE offers lots of possibilities for resurrecting (or re-purposing) the 700+/- "non-vehicle" sq. ft. of the c1970 "Apartment"; (the Home's sq ft figures Do NOT Include any of the "garage/apartment" spaces. ) This original 38'x30' center-chimney Cape has been altered & added to over time, but retains much of its charm (beamed ceilings, 2 original fireplace, wood floors, etc. ) during its various changes/updates. It remains a most comfortable 3-Bedroom/2.5 Bath home (w/ a 2012 installed State Approved 5-Bedroom Septic System, newer propane Heating & Hot Water systems, some new windows, etc. ) All this on a wonderful level 10 Acre lot (selected by one of Brookfield's early 19th Century Settlers) of lawn/pasture, woods, long stream frontage, your own small Pond, and an early stonewalled Cemetery that includes a War of 1812 Veteran's headstone. Brookfield is a member of the Governor Wentworth Regional School District; Brookfield students attend K-6 Schools in Wolfeboro as well as the Middle, High & Tech Schools on the Kingswood Campus. Only 2 miles off Rte 16, this location offers one of the easiest COMMUTES to the Seacoast; only 40 Miles/45 Minutes to Pease/Portsmouth!
Great new price. Charming antique in the country, with a lovely lot, lots of space and light! Enjoy the grounds and the separate living space, and the proximity to the mountains. The property oozes colonial times, wonderful sized rooms, nice hearths, plenty of character. GREAT PRICE. Info provided is not guaranteed.
