PRIME JAFFREY CENTER LOCATION. This great house combines the antiquity of its 1800 construction with a spacious post and beam great room which was added in 1991. There's a warm front-facing LR with handsome floors, fireplace and built-in cabinets and a charming den featuring raised pine paneling and a built-in pellet stove. You can dine by candlelight just across the hall, then proceed to the functional, eat-in kitchen with stove, dishwasher, refrigerator, and walk-in pantry. The huge cathedral ceilinged great room has a finished loft, a fireplace, southern pine floors, bookcases and built-in drawers galore. A small but convenient office is just off this room as well as a coat closet and 3/4 bath. The 2nd floor features 3 bedrooms and 1 bath and is connected to the great room by a closeted catwalk. There's also a full, walk-up attic. The full basement contains an oil radiant heating system, complementing the radiant electric and mini-splits, and a one car garage. Served by town water and sewer, there are well-established gardens and just enough land to keep you busy. A tranquil view of the old tannery pond from the pergola is sure to enhance your appreciation of solitude. This home is in the Jaffrey Center Historic District which will serve to protect your investment and the Village Improvement Society, which owns Centennial Park just across the road, helps to maintain the character of the neighborhood. We look forward to showing you this unique listing!
