Less than a five minute walk from central square, this beautifully restored post-and-beam-framed home is a hidden gem in the north-central neighborhood. The exterior boasts lovingly-tended landscaping, a 500 square foot fenced vegetable garden, two prolific cherry trees, and the row of multi-colored roses familiar to anyone who walks Union Street. Inside, the aesthetic seamlessly blends the rustic charm of mid-1800's post-and-beam with modern amenities and a more open flow. Exposed hand-hewn beams, hardwood floors, and a "secret" basement access complement the new high-quality cabinetry, modern appliances, quartz countertops, maple floors, and a custom, handcrafted floating kitchen island. A lofted den area with a spiral staircase, Carlisle hickory flooring and remote automatic skylights reveal just a few of the whimsical touches this home offers. The master bedroom suite and all three bathrooms have all been recently remodeled with modern fixtures and plumbing, and the gas water heater was replaced in 2021. The property features a spacious detached two-car garage, dry garage attic storage, and a heated workshop with benches, parts cabinets and pegboards for all your tools. The rooves of both the garage and house were replaced in 2019, with spray foam insulation throughout the house - keeping the house toasty in the winter and cool in the summer - and keeping heating costs down. A forced hot air oil furnace heats most of the house, with the loft area heated by a Hearthstone parlor stove, run on city gas. The patio and side porch provide plenty of room for grilling and outdoor dining, with an protected overhang to keep you and your grill out of the rain when summer storms pop up. This is truly a one-of-a-kind home - rustic and modern, spacious and cozy, a gardener's dream, yet just a few blocks from the heart of downtown Keene.
