New to the market after having been in the same family for three generations, this charming c.1800 cape-style farmhouse with attached barn still retains many of its original details such as wood floors, trim, doors, and hardware details.  Identified by Candia’s Heritage Commission as an historic site, it’s an inviting and comfortable home set on a rare 63 acre parcel in a great location.  Enjoy this rural location in Candia with the advantage of easy and quick access to many of NH’s most desirable areas.

It is a classic New England sight with the red barn attached to the back of the cape, painted white with green trim to highlight the details. A delightful front porch just the right size to sit and watch the comings and goings in the neighborhood.  A paved drive brings you around to the garage, parking area and or the barn.  You’ll enter the house from the side entrance into the mud room, which can be accessed from the garage and barn as well.  From there into the kitchen, it is exactly what you’d expect in a farmhouse of this age.  Plenty of counter space, two pantries, a center island and woodstove.  The dining room and front living room are open to the kitchen making entertaining or family gatherings easy.  An additional room on the first floor is currently being used as a bedroom but could be an office or TV room.  The bath is also on the first floor and it still features a claw foot tub and traditional fittings. The upstairs has been dormered to create the space for 3 bedrooms - each of them charming, good sized rooms with plenty of windows.  They have recently been refreshed with new sheetrock and a fresh coat of paint.  

Out to the barn - built of post and beam construction with all charm you’d expect of the period. There is a lower level with a side entrance, the main floor with room for stalls, and a loft – plenty of room for whatever you’d like.  An additional out building/workshop sits behind the barn adding more space for a wood shop, artist studio or room for tinkering. 

With 63 acres and nearly 600 ft of road frontage, there are many possibilities for this parcel.  A 2½ acre field, apple trees and a ready-to-to veggie garden are seen from the road.  There’s a lovely open trail that meanders nearly a mile to the back of the property where it intersects with the Old Cass/Baker Rd., a class 6 dirt road with access to more trails from there.  Stone walls stand testament to the fields that once covered this land, and a lovely little pond can be seen along the way.  There is potential for subdivision down the road with town approvals or if you’d just like you’re own piece of New Hampshire for hiking, horses, hunting, it's all here.

This is a great location with direct access to the interstate highway system via Rt. 101 to I-93, just minutes to our popular, north-of-Boston Manchester Airport.  It is just under an hour to Logan Airport and Boston.  From Candia, you can enjoy the quality of life of both New Hampshire's seacoast and the greater Manchester area. Visit the sandy ocean beaches, travel north for some fine skiing in New Hampshire's White Mountains, or take in an evening show, sports event and all major shopping in nearby Manchester, all only minutes from home.
