About This Home

As of May 2025

A Diamond in the Rough - This classic 1775 colonial boasts early features such as original raised paneling, wide pine flooring, turned staircase, and built-in corner cupboards in the front parlors. The central chimney was removed some time ago. There are single-paned windows, little to no insulation and the only sources of heat are a pellet stove in the sparse kitchen and a coal stove in a front room. The house is not livable and is a total restoration project that's well worth it once you see the character of the land including a gorgeous hayfield out back. The barn 68' barn has had substantial support work completed and has a newer 50 amp sub panel. Sited on a peaceful gravel road in the commutable town of Weare in southern NH. Cash Only. PLEASE DO NOT ENTER THE PREMISES WITHOUT AN APPT.
