Set in one of Hanover’s most desirable locations, this exceptional property offers privacy, lifestyle, and refined living just minutes from downtown.

Originally built in 1850, this beautifully restored Cape blends historic charm with a substantial modern addition, creating an impressive 4,500 sq. ft. home. A preserved portion of the antique home adds character, while the newer addition features an open-concept layout ideal for everyday living and entertaining.

The home has been extensively renovated with radiant heat, updated baths, and a gourmet kitchen. A formal dining room and elegant living room with fireplace open through French doors to a wraparound covered porch overlooking perennial gardens, open fields, and established trails with fruit trees and berry bushes.

Recent improvements include new kitchen flooring, updated lighting, fresh interior paint, and major climate upgrades with two whole-house heat pump/AC systems plus three split units serving the garage, first-floor bedroom, and den. A propane fireplace insert adds warmth and ambiance.

The finished lower level offers flexible space for a home office, family room, and gym, with added lighting, shelving, and basement waterproofing.

Exterior updates include a new roof, rebuilt dormers, full exterior repainting, new gutters, paved driveway, and a newly built three-car garage with electrical service, along with a rebuilt attached two-car garage and additional outbuildings.

The landscaped grounds feature stone walls, gardens, expanded trails, fenced areas, and enhanced lighting and security systems. Numerous additional improvements have been completed—see full list of upgrades in the listing documents. Open House Saturday, May 30th 10am-12pm
