About This Home
**Prime Improvement**Welcome to a breathtaking piece of NH history set in the heart of charming Rumney Village. Originally built in 1880, this magnificent New England Antique underwent a complete top-to-bottom renovation in 2022 and 2023, emerging as a stunning 5-bedroom, 6-bathroom masterpiece that seamlessly marries 145 years of timeless character with modern comforts. Set on nearly an acre, the home's classic front porch, wide-plank hardwood floors, exposed beams, and iconic silhouette create an unmistakable warmth that simply can't be replicated in new construction. Yet inside, everything is fresh, refined, and move-in ready — updated kitchen, spa-inspired bathrooms, and a thoughtfully designed layout that flows beautifully across 3,201 sf. 5 generous bedrooms and 6 bathrooms mean there is always room for family, friends, and guests alike. Whether you're envisioning this as your four-season mountain retreat or a high-performing STR investment, the location delivers on every level. Rumney Rocks — one of the premier sport climbing destinations — is practically in your backyard, drawing enthusiasts from across the country year-round. World-class skiing at Loon Mountain, Waterville Valley and Tenney, just minutes away, while hiking along the Appalachian Trail corridor, snowmobiling, mountain biking, swimming, and kayaking fill out a recreation calendar that keeps guests and family members busy in every season. Stinson Lake a few minutes up the road, Newfound and Squam Lakes, add yet another dimension to this region's extraordinary appeal. For the savvy investor, the market fundamentals are compelling. The property's 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and authentic New England aesthetic are precisely the combination that drives premium nightly rates and repeat bookings on today's short-term rental platforms. For the SF buyer, this is something rarer still — a home with genuine soul, a village setting where kids can play. Whether you're building a legacy, a portfolio or both.
