This iconic 1812 stone home sits on a level 0.98-acre lot and includes 130 feet of owned Connecticut River frontage just across the quiet country road, offering easy access for kayaking, fishing, paddle boarding, or simply enjoying the ever-changing water views. Inside, the home blends historic character with comfortable living. The first floor offers a warm and inviting living room with wood stove, country kitchen with dining nook, formal dining room, first-floor bedroom, half bath, sun porch, workshop space, and generous storage. Upstairs you'll find a large primary bedroom, office, and full bath, while the third level provides an additional bedroom and flexible bonus space perfect for guests, studio, or work-from-home use. Original details remain throughout — maple floors on the main level, wide pine floors above, and deep farmhouse window trim — creating the charm only a true period home can offer. Outside, the property is equally special, with mature landscaping, established garden areas, patio space, and a workshop/shed. The river frontage across the road expands the lifestyle, giving you your own personal access to the Connecticut River without sacrificing privacy at the house site. Conveniently located just minutes to I-91 and an easy bike ride to Post Pond and Cedar Circle Farm, this property offers a unique blend of history, recreation, and rural tranquility — a setting increasingly difficult to find in the Upper Valley. Just a 20 minute drive to downtown Hanover & Dartmouth College. High School Choice.
