Hugh eat-in kitchen with large fireplace hearth-currently housing a wood stove. Formal dining room, 4 bedrooms, 1 & 1/2 baths, back stair to master bedroom and attic staircase. Many closets, nooks and crannies, even a broom closet. This abiding old beauty needs thoughtful updating to bring it into the 21st century, while preserving and protecting the 18th century charm which makes it so unique. 2 Shoestrap Road is listed in The Heritage Commission's Inventory of Historically Significant Houses of Lyme NH.
