Nestled well back from a quiet country road, this 1769 antique Cape blends timeless charm with thoughtful modern updates. A 2012 renovation added a new kitchen, bathroom, and six-foot bump out, along with Pella windows on the west and south sides???filling the home with natural light and framing breathtaking views of Mt. Monadnock and the surrounding gardens. Historic character shines through wide-plank pine floors, hand-hewn beams, and three fireplaces, complemented by original woodwork and a Yodel wood stove. Modern touches include a negotiable whole-house generator, decent cell reception, excellent internet, and an 18-year-old roof with a 30-year guarantee. A true showpiece is the post-and-beam barn, custom-built in 2018???2019 using New Hampshire-grown wood. Designed to accommodate horses on two floors, it features 10-foot hand-built garage doors, underground power and fiber optics, and a light-filled three-story layout ready for use as a stable, studio, or creative retreat. A 400-foot maple- and stonewall-lined driveway leads to thoughtfully designed gardens, a tranquil pond, and expertly crafted stone walls built from the original barn???s foundation. With on-site fire protection via two ponds, this private country retreat offers timeless beauty, practical upgrades, and rare craftsmanship at every turn.
