210 Ten Rod Road, Rochester, NH, 03867
About This Home
Privacy, open fields, a meandering brook, and expansive easterly views of non-buildable conservation lands, set an idyllic stage for this unique countryside, antique cape with restored barn, offering charm and proximity to Seacoast NH. Across from over 200 acres of conservation land, the property is situated on a total of 5.45± acres and is comprised of two lots of record – the 2nd lot also being buildable with some standard permitting. The property enjoys 550’ of road frontage, and is surrounded by natural woodlands, flourishing apple trees, a babbling brook, and enduring stone walls. With character and first floor living, the house features an eat-in kitchen with large brick fireplace and walk-in pantry, a dining room with brick fireplace, spacious living room, and a mudroom/sitting area with separate reading nook or small office. A first-floor primary bedroom and two bedrooms on the second floor complete the main house. An ell connecting the main house to the restored barn acts as a spacious family room with an above loft and half bathroom, offering the potential for a fourth bedroom or guest suite. Thoughtfully maintained for over 30 years by the past and current owners. The restored barn is well-maintained, versatile and can be used as a workshop, for car storage, or could easily convert to an equestrian barn. The harmonious balance of seclusion and convenience places the property in the rural countryside, yet only minutes from local shopping, 30 minutes from downtown Portsmouth, and 90 minutes from Boston.
