Looking to leave a crowded urban environment for a more rural primary or secondary home where fresh air abounds? Look no further! This expansive building, which once served as the Cardigan Mountain School, has been a personal home for over 20 years. Many updates have happened over the years including new roof, many new windows, and a propane furnace. Additionally, an on demand generator has been added for your piece of mind during inclement weather. Inside, a large workable kitchen, renovated pantry and ½ bath. The expansive dining room is the perfect place for large gatherings and features a hardwood table capable of seating 16. The front entry as well as a portion of the 2nd floor has been brought down to studs and leveled. While in need of updating and renovating to your liking, the home has and can be lived in and enjoyed “as is” while you create your dream for this unique property. This historic home sits on 1.95 acres in the historic district of Canaan, NH with shared beach access to the 375 acre Canaan Street Lake. Here you can enjoy boating, fishing, swimming, and kayaking with friends and family. This home is located less than one mile from Cardigan Mountain School, 20 miles to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center and Dartmouth College and easy access to all the Upper Valley has to offer.
