3 Brook RoadHanover, NH 03755Sale Price: $1,385,000

Showings begin on Saturday 7/29. Located within walking distance via sidewalk to downtown Hanover, local schools, restaurants, shops, and near trail access to the Mink Brook Preserve and the Connecticut River, this 1951 Cape was thoroughly and expertly renovated in 2013 by the current owners. The open, level, and landscaped lot of just under half an acre in one of Hanover's favorite neighborhoods has southern exposure and pleasant views of the Mink Brook. The bright and sunny living room offers one of three fireplaces, and a spacious foyer connects to the open-concept kitchen with granite counters, custom cabinets, and a spacious family room. A cozy corner library, dining room, and mudroom that connects to the two-car attached garage (with additional living space above) complete the first floor. Hardwood and tile floors run through both levels of the house, and wainscoting, chair rail, and classic moldings add to the charm of the interior. Superbly updated baths serve all three bedrooms on the second floor and a walk-in closet in the primary bedroom suite as well as a large second-floor laundry room for both comfort and functionality. Two raised decks off the back of the house provide excellent outdoor dining and sitting areas, and open lawns, mature trees and established gardens grace the exterior. Clean lines, tasteful finishes, and a location that's hard to beat make 3 Brook Road one of the best in-town homes we've seen this year.
