Conveniently located in the village of Orfordville is a historic cape style home just a 30 minute ride to Hanover and 35 minutes to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. Upon entry through your covered porch, you are greeted by a marvelous kitchen that speaks to the chef, or the wanna be chef in you! Gas range, cherry cabinets, breakfast bar and connecting den and dining rooms afford delightful accoutrements for preparation and dinner parties close to the cook for light conversation and libations. Perhaps dining or sunning outside on your private deck that basks over a landscaped waterfall of perennials flooded with colors would complete your day. But wait, if this doesn't captivate you yet, the second story houses 4 bedrooms, including a primary suite which connects to a mother-in-law or accessory dwelling unit that consists of 3/4 bath, bedroom and a sunken kitchen/living room. If extra space or income is desired, this is it! So much is new in this home yet so much remains of the era in which it was built. It's a come see property which will dazzle you! Open house on Sunday, May 26 from 10am - 12pm. Showings delayed until May 25, 2024.
