Property Description

Back on the market! Preserved 1897 Colonial offering 4 bedrooms, 2½ baths, approximately 3,100 square feet, and an exceptional 1.29-acre setting with views of Arrowhead Mountain and overlooking Monadnock Park. This architectural treasure hints at Stanford White influence and retains remarkable original details, including 9-foot ceilings, wood floors, solid wood doors, and brass hardware. A grand entrance opens to a spectacular living room featuring a fireplace crowned by a rare Donatello Putti casting imported from Florence, Italy. Two sets of double glass doors provide direct access to the expansive columned summer porch. The kitchen and two butler’s pantries are a time capsule of quality craftsmanship, featuring an original Alberene soapstone sink and a copper sink. The formal dining room offers a crystal chandelier, bow window framing views of Arrowhead Mountain, leaded-glass built-ins, and three substantial sliding doors. A second fireplace anchors the comfortable den. An impressive grand staircase illuminated by a large Palladian window leads to the second floor. The primary bedroom encompasses two rooms with generous closet space and a cozy fireplace. Three additional bedrooms include distinctive features such as access to a glassed-in three-season porch and a deep cedar closet. The third-floor walk-up attic reveals the home’s substantial construction, provides abundant storage, and formerly served as staff quarters with a half bath. Mature shade trees, private backyard space, and an oversized two-car garage complete this extraordinary property. A true architectural gem blending historic integrity, craftsmanship, and comfortable living.
