Description

Classic Post & Beam nestled into an appealing sylvan setting, larger than it appears, full of personality. Settle into your own private world and relax by the fire in your gracious living room or cozy family room, or sun yourself on the vast rear deck. Stroll along a meandering, tended path through the woods to your delightful meadow, and stop along the way by the stone bridge and vernal pool. The master BR is an indulgence, with its sitting area and decorative gas stove, separate dressing room,...Classic Post & Beam nestled into an appealing sylvan setting, larger than it appears, full of personality. Settle into your own private world and relax by the fire in your gracious living room or cozy family room, or sun yourself on the vast rear deck. Stroll along a meandering, tended path through the woods to your delightful meadow, and stop along the way by the stone bridge and vernal pool. The master BR is an indulgence, with its sitting area and decorative gas stove, separate dressing room, and spacious tiled bath. Feel like sharing? There are two other BRs with baths on the main floor, plus a unique loft overlooking the living room and two other bonus rooms upstairs. Custom shelving throughout the house will be perfect for displaying your books, mementos and treasures. Although tranquil and secluded, Lincoln and Loon are just 15 miles away; shopping in Woodsville is 12 miles; the "Big Eddy" swimming hole is even closer, and you're cheek to cheek with the Black Mt. trail.
