Property Description

Twenty-four private acres, timeless New England character, and room to truly settle in. Set along a quiet country road in Alstead, this remarkable property offers the kind of setting that is increasingly hard to find, mature trees, open land, historic stone walls, a peaceful stream and beautiful outdoor spaces surrounding an authentic circa-1790 Colonial. Inside, more than 3,000 square feet of living space blends centuries-old craftsmanship with thoughtful updates. Original wood floors, handcrafted doors and beautiful cherry railings preserve the home’s character, while Marvin replacement windows add modern comfort. At the heart of the home is a warm and inviting country kitchen with marble countertops, farmhouse and bar sinks, brick pantry and a traditional cookstove. Spacious dining and living areas are anchored by two working fireplaces, creating a home that feels equally suited to quiet weekends and a house full of guests. A sunroom provides a peaceful place to enjoy the changing seasons, while the generous mudroom, workshop and dedicated laundry room offer the practical spaces country living calls for. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a full bath and a charming second-floor sitting room ideal for reading, working from home or simply getting away. An unfinished third floor provides additional possibilities for future living, studio or guest space. But it is the land and lifestyle that truly set this property apart. With 24.1 acres to explore, garden, recreate or simply enjoy, there is space here for animals, outdoor pursuits and a quieter pace of life. Cool off beneath the outdoor shower after a summer afternoon outside, wander the stone walls and stream, or simply enjoy the privacy of your own piece of New Hampshire. This isn’t simply a historic home it’s an opportunity to own 24 acres of authentic New England living, with a house that has been part of the landscape for more than two centuries.
