This stately brick colonial is situated on 12.5 acres of perfectly level and open land along Orford's coveted Dame Hill Road and offers over 2,800 square feet of comfortable living space. Over the past 25 years of stewardship, many thoughtful and modern upgrades have been added throughout, while honoring the design and architecture of its original era. The main level includes a well-appointed kitchen with dining area, formal living room, library/study, vaulted-ceiling family room addition, 3/4 bathroom and laundry. The library area can also double as a bedroom, offering first floor living if needed. The second floor has 4 spacious bedrooms and a full bath. The unfinished attic/3rd floor offers potential for even more living space if desired. The walkout basement provides loads of storage space, and the large detached 2-3 bay garage/barn offers so many options - it was previously home to an antique shop. Living in zoning-free Orford means the possibilities are endless with this already spectacular property: create a family compound or start a farm. The location is IDEAL - easy access to popular dining options in nearby Lyme, NH, and Fairlee and Bradford, VT. Lakes Morey and Fairlee are minutes away, and Upper Valley destinations including the Dartmouth Skiway, Dartmouth College and Dartmouth Health Medical Center are just a short drive. Located within 10 minutes of Interstate 91 and 2 1/2 hours to the Boston area. Schedule a private tour today.
