"Clay Brook Place" - this beautifully renovated 1800's farmhouse is spacious, light-filled, and has a wonderfully designed floor plan. The open-concept first floor has a modern kitchen, generous in size, which opens to living and dining spaces - ideal for entertaining. In the colder months, spend evenings around the Rumford Fireplace with a glass of wine or early mornings with a cup of coffee and a good book. The master suite provides a large bathroom with a claw foot tub and his and her walk-in closets. There is an additional "wing" that offers two bedrooms, a 3/4 bath and a second story office or recreation/media room. The hand-hewn beams and wide pine floors add to the integrity of this historic home. There is no shortage of storage space - there are large closets throughout the house - even under each staircase! The oversized barn currently houses a fully finished area with a cozy gas stove - ideal for a home office, recreational room or guest space. The stone patio and seasonal perennials make outdoor entertainment in the warmer months an absolute delight. There is a backup generator and a secondary pellet furnace in addition to the primary. Sited perfectly, the home is set back from Orford Road just enough to provide the right amount of privacy yet extremely convenient to both Lyme and Hanover - 3 minutes to to the Lyme green and 18 minutes to Hanover. Lyme has its own elementary/middle school and choice for high school.
