About This Home

Discover the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and natural beauty in this must-see Saltbox Cape, ideally situated just outside of town with 2.5 acres, river frontage, and generous garden space. Inside, the home has newer windows and sliders and has been thoughtfully remodeled, beginning with the beautiful kitchen featuring Energy Star smart appliances, a Kraus water filtration system, quartz countertops, KraftMaid solid wood cabinetry, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a welcoming dining area with coffee bar. The renovated bathroom offers double sinks, a tiled shower and radiant floor heat under lovely tile for a cozy touch you’ll appreciate year-round. The living room, with its cathedral ceiling, skylights and wood stove, creates an inviting gathering space. A spacious first-floor office/laundry room adds everyday convenience. Upstairs, you’ll find two large bedrooms with closet systems plus a walk-up attic for additional storage or future expansion. A detached two-car garage (new in 2005) provides ample parking and workspace. Outside, a brand-new greenhouse awaits your gardening ambitions, complemented by additional outbuildings and canopies for tools and supplies. The soothing sound of the river below enhances the peaceful setting, while the covered porch and deck offer wonderful outdoor living areas. Strawberry plants and fruit trees provide summer enjoyment. This location strikes the perfect balance between tranquility and accessibility—walk to local shops and the library, enjoy an easy commute via I-89 north or south, and reach Lake Sunapee or Mount Sunapee in minutes. Boston is just 1.5 hours away. Town residents also have access to French's Park at Lake Massasecum for summer fun. A rare opportunity to enjoy acreage, river frontage, and modern updates in a truly convenient location. Showings begin at the Open house on Saturday, February 21st from 10-1.
