About this home
Built in 1835 and thoughtfully restored, this 4 bedroom Greek Revival home beautifully blends period character with modern updates, including solar power, mini splits, a new roof, new chimney, updated electrical and renovated kitchen and bath. Historic details abound: tin ceilings, a cozy wood stove, 1920s light fixtures, the original staircase, and custom built-ins create timeless appeal. A newly added dormer enhances the large primary suite, offering serene river views, a walk-in closet, and abundant natural light. The first-floor library is a book lover’s retreat. Outdoors, the setting is unmatched:nestled beside a waterfall, natural granite water slide, and swimming hole, with the soothing sound of the brook in the background. The landscaped garden and mountain views provide privacy while still being connected to nearby Manchester and Dorset and offering a friendly village community vibe. Recreational opportunities are endless with hiking trails nearby and six ski mountains within an hour’s drive. Rich with history, the home once belonged to author Pearl S. Buck, who used it as a book repository and history states that she even wallpapered one of the bedrooms herself. A property full of stories, charm, and modern comfort.
