Waterfront, Contoocook River. This picturesque antique cape, originally the homestead of ensign Elijah Rice, is brimming with history and charm and offers amazing views of the Contoocook River that must be seen to be appreciated. From the upper gardens there is a close view of the historic stone arch bridge and covered bridge, a popular site for photographers and artists. A picture postcard village setting and a preserved, spacious 1780 barn (with electricity and heated office) are unique benefits for this delightful historic home. The 3 level barn offers an open porch that overlooks the lower terraced lawn, gardens and river. Formerly the site of an antique shop, this home has many custom built-ins, period details, and a lovely fireplace in the living room. The kitchen and sunroom enjoy exceptional river views. Six rooms, two bedrooms, with scenery and a village location one cannot duplicate.
