Description

REDUCED $310,000! An exceptional property, Drake Farm lends itself to a variety of approved uses. Situated regally on 10.89 acres on Route 1, the property is comprised of a spectacular 12 room, 2642sf Georgian Victorian home attached to a small 400sf barn which leads to the imposing 9600sf barn, all added in the mid to late 1800's. The property has been operated as Drake Farm Books, Antiques and Art Gallery since 1989, and is one of the largest rare book stores in New England. The business operates out of the larger three story barn, which features magnificent natural light and original wood beams and worn floor boards. The smaller of the barns features an antique railroad station wood stove and has a separate entrance off the circular drive. The home is characterized by stunning period details such as artisan crafted oyster shell ceilings, yet it has updated systems, a new furnace and a 200 amp electrical system. The back land is terraced woodlands and working farm land. Parking is facilitated by a circular drive in front, as well as a parking lot to the side of the main barn. The property sits overlooking protected land across the street affording expansive views of the area, and is on heavily trafficked Route 1, (16,900 vehicles per day NHDOT). Zoning allows for a multitude of uses such as hospitality, retail, schools, office, food service and office. Building price details: $1,490,000.
