Open concept Federal Style antique home PLUS 2 story Red barn with metal roof This warm & cozy home is sited on one of New England's most charming Main streets where antique homes run the length of the village. Near to skiing, golf, trails, mountains, & lakes for fishing or swimming. 20 minutes to downtown Peterborough NH where one can explore boutique shops, fine dining, bookstores, museums, local pubs, & eateries. In the early 1800's, this historic home was once the Timothy Gay Village Store. Tall ceilings on both floors, wide pine flooring, some of it "The King's pine," 3 fireplaces, and plenty of rooms and bathrooms. The acreage is listed at .5 acres but the level and enchanting back yard seems bigger than that as you sit at an elevated patio level looking down at nature's pretty fall foliage and the lovely open setting of backyards in an historical setting. A 9 year old Weil McClane furnace ought to run for decades to come. It's such a pretty town and this property fits right in with other nearby historic homes. Plenty of square footage here with the possibility of creating a master bedroom suite with minimal effort. 1st floor bedroom possibilities too. Plenty of bathrooms- most updated to today's standards. Walk to the village store & grab lunch to go or listen to the many performing artists at the town meeting house. Library & town offices are within a 2 minute walk. Please have some knowledge of antique homes. See slideshow. 5K credit to buyer at close!
