Description

Surprise lies beyond the double cedar gates. Once you enter you will be captivated by the charm within. The grounds encompass 11.5 acres bordering on the Contoocook River. N-westerly views take in the Mink Hills to Mount Sunapee. Local hillside destinations add both excitement & serenity. It's about sitting on one of the patios or in the cozy screened porch off the master bedroom suite to capture the many spectacular sunsets from spring to fall. With the acreage, think about adding your small barn...Surprise lies beyond the double cedar gates. Once you enter you will be captivated by the charm within. The grounds encompass 11.5 acres bordering on the Contoocook River. N-westerly views take in the Mink Hills to Mount Sunapee. Local hillside destinations add both excitement & serenity. It's about sitting on one of the patios or in the cozy screened porch off the master bedroom suite to capture the many spectacular sunsets from spring to fall. With the acreage, think about adding your small barn or extra garage. The grounds are special with several brick walkways, patios & beautiful stone walls. Other areas hold plum trees, apple trees, a lovely grape arbor, and even a herb garden. It's a gardener's delight (we think you will fall in love with the small koi pond that can be enjoyed as you enter the first cedar gate & also from the kitchen sink window). The house has been fortunate with many good stewards over the years. Many thoughtful additions & alterations have been made over that time. This includes a 22x24 master suite addition that gives the house balance & dimension. This unique floor plan offers a blend of older charm & newer conveniences with 3 full baths, renovated kitchen crafted by a Vermont artisan, wood floors throughout, wonderful french doors allowing for the captivating views, newer roof, Marvin windows, irrigation system, generator, & lots more. Quick drive to Concord & medical services, 5 minutes to golfing/skiing/river access. Agent interest.
