About This Home
As of June 2019Up a country road amidst the Bald Sunapee mountain range & sandwiched between 2 pastures at the beginning of a lovely subdivision you will find this custom-built, one-owner, beautiful Maine Post & Beam Cape on 3+ acres. The back yard provides a fishing stream & abuts common land. Just down the road you have access to Gillingham Pond. Such a pristine, pastoral setting w/apple trees & a screened porch in the back of the house to make you feel at peace. Enter into a slate mudroom w/laundry & half bath. The gleaming, just restored wood floors welcome you to an open concept kitchen/dining/living room w/fireplace & wood stove. A first floor bedroom & full bath round out this level. Upstairs is a loft area overlooking the main level w/plenty of skylights to let the sun pour in. Add a wall and this could be a 3rd bedroom as it is a 3 bedroom septic. A 3/4 bath & master bedroom w/under window storage benches & double closets round out this level. On to the mostly finished basement w/wooden bar & stools, a dart board & space for a pool table to provide endless family fun. There is even storage for your wine collection or canned goods! The garage features a cedar closet & a heated office space above, ideal for the person who wants to work from home yet feel detached...you can't beat this commute! Only minutes to Mt. and Lake Sunapee, easy highway access yet you feel like you have found your country retreat! 1.5 hours to Boston, this well-loved gem awaits its next owner!
