About This Home
As of February 2025The historic Jaquith House is located in the Andover settlement of Simonsville on Rte 11. This historical brick federal 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home on 6.85 +/- acres has potential for either a vacation home with guest house, year round residence or investment property. The two story double-walled brick home has original features such as eyebrow windows and 3 chimneys and has been thoughtfully updated with modern amenities such as first floor radiant heat, central air and chef's kitchen with a professional 48" Dacor range with double ovens, ensconced in an arched, brick hearth complimented by cherry cabinets, walk-in pantry and attractive island and curly maple counters. Period details have been carefully attended to with custom interior shutters, replacement windows, a Monson slate roof, preserved softwood pine floors, clawfoot tub, custom copper top vanities/sinks and three fireplaces. A walk-up attic offers storage or additional space to finish. A recently added detached two bay post and beam garage adds both character and utility with oversized doors for RV use. The "kissing bridge" serves as a woodshed and an auto generator adds peace of mind. A screen house nestled by the river is great for cookouts. Two barns, original mill stones and a historic logging road reflect the property's history along the Williams River for over 200 years. Convenient to skiing. 6.85 acres includes a 3.49+/- acre lot w/state approved wastewater permit for 4 bedroom home. Easy access to skiing.
