Description

Enjoy the pleasure of a creatively constructed home enveloped by 50 acres of conserved, cleared land. The home features both historic elements -- this was site of the 1804 Latham Tavern -- and a nicely executed second floor built by noted carpenter (the owner) 3 years ago. Among other unusual aspects of the house is the incorporation of 15 antique doors into the living room, 4 as functioning doors, and 11 as pleasing paneling! The 2.6-acre site spills seamlessly into the adjoining 50 acres--ideal...Enjoy the pleasure of a creatively constructed home enveloped by 50 acres of conserved, cleared land. The home features both historic elements -- this was site of the 1804 Latham Tavern -- and a nicely executed second floor built by noted carpenter (the owner) 3 years ago. Among other unusual aspects of the house is the incorporation of 15 antique doors into the living room, 4 as functioning doors, and 11 as pleasing paneling! The 2.6-acre site spills seamlessly into the adjoining 50 acres--ideal for hiking and cross-country skiing. Open fields across the street lead down to Pushee Falls. The second floor features a primary bedroom, an inviting studio, a spacious bathroom, and a walk-in closet, plus stairs to ample attic storage and a wonderful whole-house fan Two other desirable features are the Solaflect tracker with its 5KW capacity, more than enough to power all of the electrical needs without a bill, and LymeFiber Internet. It’s 3 miles to the center of Lyme with its historic green, 3 restaurants, 2 inns, 2 banks, a hardware store, beloved Converse Library, and famed country market. And the Dartmouth Skiway is a 10-minute drive. I-91 and Dartmouth College are also nearby. Lyme enjoys its acclaimed elementary school and the ability of local residents to attend a choice of high schools, including Hanover High, Thetford Academy, and St. Johnsbury Academy. Don't miss an opportunity to acquire this fully functional home in a convenient location surrounded by open space.
