Light floods into this 244 year old home sited on 10 acres. Just open your door, snap on your skis and you are in the woods. Just minutes from Half Moon Pond, a favorite for quiet water kayaking, fishing, ice skating and surrounded by hiking and x-country ski trails. Vatcher Road is loved by walkers and cyclists with several one to two hour loops that include general stores, cafes and markets in Hancock Village, historic Harrisville and Peterborough. According to a history of Hancock, authored by E.M. Hayward in 1913, the first record of the original farm was the settlement of Robert Duncan in 1780. For the past 50+ years, this home has been in the same family. This four bedroom home features fireplaces in both the living room and kitchen. Crown molding, chair rails, wainscoting and simply beautiful wood floors are some of the details found here. Well-insulated in the attic and basement. An 18 by 66 foot barn is attached to the home. The home is in need of some maintenance e.g., fresh exterior paint and some exterior clapboard replacement. Some updating of the kitchen and baths may be desired. It is being offered in as-in condition. Located in the heart of the Monadnock region, the area offers casual and fine dining, summer theatre, intimate theatre, a movie house, an excellent independent bookstore, markets and organic farms and is rich in its arts community.
