DESCRIPTION


An amazing 13 acre+/- backyard with rolling fields laced by woodlands, blooming apple and crab trees, gardens, an abundance of deer, and you will hear calls from loons. Just a 500' walk to the public sandy beach on Canaan Street Lake and the 1793 Canaan Meeting House. Take a morning jog around the lake or a stroll along the street with historic homes. There are mountain views and amazing sunsets from the west porch and your backyard. The 1803 Colonial 5 bedroom, 3 bath home has been updated over the years including a new heating system 7 years ago while honoring many of the original features with decorative fireplaces with mantels, original 4 panel solid doors, wide pine floors, and custom built-ins in most rooms. You will find a traditional layout flexibility with bedrooms and baths on each level, a primary bedroom suite on the west side of the house overlooking the backyard & wildlife, a 35x12 three-season side porch for entertaining, side patio for your morning coffee, and enclosed entry porch. Plus, a 3-bay garage/barn with storage and a detached barn with a loft. The Northern Rail Trail is nearby for snowmobiling, bike riding or hiking, climb Cardigan Mountain, visit the many local area ponds/lakes, or ski at Ragged Mountain or Dartmouth Skiway. Cardigan Mountain Boys School, Mascoma Community Health Center, and the public beach are nearby. Easy commute to the Upper Valley to Dartmouth hospital or VA, Concord or New London area. 2 hours to Boston.
