The Prince Place, New Boston
$225,000
|
The Prince Place awaits your imagination to bring it back to life and into the 21st century. Set along a ridge on a quiet country road, with westerly views of distant mountains and regal sunsets, this prime country location is only 30 minutes from our popular Manchester/Boston Regional Airport and just 2 miles from the village center of New Boston. The property is comprised of a house and barn on 12 acres of open land that abut hundreds of acres of permately conserved land.
The deed has one-residence covenant to protect its future for farming and livestock endeavors. The original 2-story farmhouse was built in the early 1800's and its footprint measures 23’ x 40’. Exterior renovation was started with the removal of the side porch and 30% of the old stone foundation was rebuilt with concrete block. Inside, on the first and second floors, much of the dirty work is done as most interior walls have been taken down to the original lathe and the old flooring removed. The floor plan is arranged around the center chimney and has a nice flow from room to room. Inside you will find 8 rooms and 1.5 baths, including 4 bedrooms up. The attic is open and could make a spectacular master bedroom suite, taking advantage of the great views. Or perhaps, turn it into a theatre/game room or art studio as you’ll be inspired by your surroundings.
The barn is that unique-to-New England size of 40’ by 60’ and was probably built a few years later than the house. It has multiple lofts, cattle pens and milking stalls. Outside, there is a covered livestock shed that runs the length of the barn and provides an extra overhang to lower level—perfect for horses or cattle to come and go. On the opposite side of the barn is a 3-bay carriage shed where you’ll find the frost-free hydrant with a water line in place from the house.
The land is mostly in pasture and is divided by stonewalls and dotted with apple trees. This land will allow you to make use of New Hampshire’s Current Use Tax Status. As you look out over the forest, fields and meandering stream of the abutting 400 acres and another 300 acres of Frances Hildreth Townes Forest you’ll appreciate the value of this wonderful setting - that will remain the same for generations to come.
This is a perfect opportunity to buy a little piece of New Hampshire, create an interior over time that suits your lifestyle or for future retirement or just enjoy that weekend house in the country! Be aware when viewing the property that the power and water are turned off, so dress warmly and please wear practical footwear. This sale would most likely need to be cash due to banks' strict requirements these days! This one is worth it.
