Description

Steeped in Dartmouth tradition, 17 Rope Ferry Road is a landmark home in what is arguably Hanover's finest residential neighborhood. Sited on the crest of a hill on more than an acre of land across from Occom Pond and a short walk to campus, Main Street, the Hanover Country Club and Pine Park, the original 1907 home has passed through three generations of family ownership. An expansion of the original home under the current owner's guidance in 2000 has created a home that blends period interiors...Steeped in Dartmouth tradition, 17 Rope Ferry Road is a landmark home in what is arguably Hanover's finest residential neighborhood. Sited on the crest of a hill on more than an acre of land across from Occom Pond and a short walk to campus, Main Street, the Hanover Country Club and Pine Park, the original 1907 home has passed through three generations of family ownership. An expansion of the original home under the current owner's guidance in 2000 has created a home that blends period interiors with modern conveniences. Perfectly designed for entertaining, the heart of the interior is the Great Room and open floor plan kitchen with dining area that opens into a large, sunny bar and formal living room. The most prominent and spacious covered wraparound porch overlooking the lawn and views of Occom Pond. Large master suite with walk in closets, a bath with steam shower and three additional bedrooms on the second floor as well as a finished basement complete the interior. A Hanover gem.
