Captain Jonathan Atwood House
Weare, NH
$899,000

The jewel of the Captain Jonathan Atwood House is the handsome attached barn, which underwent major structural restoration beginning in 2013.  From new piers and 8’x8’ and 8’x10’ uprights, to reinforced concrete, fieldstone, and granite foundation walls, to the replacement of any part of the entire timber frame that showed rot or weakness, this barn should now proudly serve the farm’s owners well into the next century. A local master timber framer with experience in historic structures performed the extensive structural work..

The circa 1765 Captain Jonathan Atwood House is steeped in local and regional history, with its original owner born in Hampstead, NH, in 1736.

We highly recommend that you contact the local zoning, planning and/or building department to confirm your intended use of any property as part of your due diligence prior to purchase.  Don’t assume that because you see a property for sale or neighboring properties being used a certain way that you can do the same.  Zoning regulations can change, some properties may “grandfathered” or operating under a variance or special exception that may not be transferable to you so you should always verify for yourself that you can use, expand or modify a property in the manner you intend.
