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 the Boston/Manchester 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 hundred of acres of private conservation land.
The property 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 by 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...
The property 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 by 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. The first floor has living room, a family room, a half bath and the kitchen. The second floor has 4 rooms plus a full bath. The attic is open from the main staircase and could be converted into a spectacular master bedroom suite, taking advantage of the great views. Or perhaps, turn it into a theatre/game room or art studio as youll 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 levelperfect for horses or cattle to come and go. On the opposite side of the barn is a 3-bay carriage shed where youll 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 Hampshires Current Use Tax Status. As you look out over the forest, fields and meandering stream of the abutting 400 acres of privately conserved land and another 300 acres of managed forest youll 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.
