This 1913 Contoocook village home's location, on a pretty corner lot, could not be better. Walk to specialty shops, pharmacy, restaurants, library, art gallery, schools, churches, summer concerts, farmer's market, fourth of July celebrations, and much more. Victorian detailing, such as unique fan decoration at gable ends, adds great interest to this beautiful home. From the Cottage St side porch, enter into the back hallway and to a spacious eat in kitchen. Here you will find great counter space, a new range and a pantry closet. To the right of the back entry, stairs lead to a private home office (or in-law space) over the garage. Convenient to the kitchen you will find gracious dining and living rms with hardwd floors and original bull's eye woodwork. A truly favorite spot, adjacent to the living rm, is an old-fashioned front screen porch complete with a day bed where you can relax and while away summer days. A vintage stairway leads to four lovely bedrms and a full bath on the second floor. Original woodworking is replicated in the newer 20x20 two story addition where you will find a fabulous great rm with a glass front woodstove, pine beams, and glass doors to a sunny deck. An exercise area, great storage, and laundry are in the lower level. An irrigation system guarantees a lush lawn. If interested in a lifestyle offering the charm and allure of a New England home with walkability to all village amenities, look no further! Open house Sat. 5-14, 10 to 2.
