About this home

Step back in time to the 18th century in this architectural jewel, 300 years young and awaiting another loving caretaker to guide her through the 21st century! Located on a scenic NH road, this lovely colonial is well sited on a 3.8 acre level lot, surrounded on 3 sides by conservation land. Spacious rooms, wide pine flooring, gunstock corners, huge fireplaces, all invite cozy evenings at home or memorable gatherings. Large brick-floored screened porch overlooks mature trees and plantings, newer detached garage with storage. A gardener's delight, and possible horse property.
