Oakleigh Farm , Chichester
$249,000



This one is special! A charming  1,800 s/f antique cape on almost 9 open acres (in two lots of record), a spacious 4-stall barn with water and electricity, an outdoor riding ring, and trail access all within minutes of the state’s capital.   What more could you ask for?

The c1780 home still retains much of its historic charm combined with updates you expect.  Enter the home through the mud room (a NH necessity) and into the eat-in kitchen which features a cathedral ceiling, a wood stove to warm you on those chilly nights, and lots of windows looking out to the pastures.  This is where you’ll spend most of your time.  The front entrance boasts a lovely foyer that separates the two front parlors. One more spacious room is currently used as a bedroom but you can purpose these three spaces to suit your lifestyle – a very adaptable first floor.  What was the original kitchen in the ell now bridges the newer space to the antique. It houses a  ½ bath and office or sitting room.  Upstairs is a generous foyer that could be an office, study or shared computing area for the kids, three bedrooms, and a full bath.

For the animals - The barn has been expanded by the current owner to house four stalls, a large tack/feed area with ample space for tack, blankets, and bedding; plenty of room for grooming and tacking up, and stairs to the loft that stores approx. 300 bales of hay - of course there’s water and electricity.  A large turn out shed allows for the horses to manage their own time – in or out depending on the weather.

Most of the 8.8 acres is in pasture surrounded and separated by fabulous stone walls and graced by tall oaks, with electric and some wood fencing.  For schooling or warming up there’s a  riding ring with grass footing, and for the trail riders there is easy access to hiking and snowmobiling trails right from the property.

Just east of Concord, our state capital, Oakleigh Farm is located in the charming town of Chichester, an active rural community.  An easy commute for work and shopping with Routes 202/4/, Route 28 and I-293/I-93 just minutes away, you will enjoy the small farm lifestyle without sacrificing amenities and services.  Less than 15 minutes to the Steeplegate Mall!
