About this home
Historic 1770 five-bedroom, two-bath Colonial farmhouse on 23.33 acres in Cheshire County, just outside Keene, New Hampshire. With over 3,500 square feet of finished living space, this antique home features two central chimneys, eight fireplaces, original wide plank floors, exposed beams, and a wood cook stove. Carefully updated with modern electrical and systems while preserving period details, including wall murals by famed folk artist Rufus Porter painted around the year 1825! Enjoy stunning mountain views across open meadows, mature hardwoods, and a classic post-and-beam barn. A screened gazebo with its own fireplace provides a unique space for gatherings. The beautifully landscaped grounds are ideal for events, weddings, and reunions. Located minutes from Surry Mountain Lake and Park, offering fishing, swimming, kayaking, hiking trails, and a scenic stream just a short walk away. Part of the land is used for maple syrup production. This cherished property has been in the same family for over 50 years, originally discovered in the pages of Yankee Magazine. A rare opportunity to own a true New England legacy, perfect as a year-round home, retreat, or event venue.
