No traffic here! Bring your bike and hiking shoes! There's miles of quiet roads to explore. You'll also find a nicely maintained historic colonial home with many authentic and period features! Over 3,500 SF of living space and a beautiful post and beam barn that's 76 feet long! Known as the Maple Ridge Farm, this lovely home sits upon a knoll, part of the 7 acres of land that make up this first tract. The second parcel extends across the road - a 6 acre parcel with a 1/2 acre pond! What picture perfect pastoral views! And the Ossipee Mountain range, featuring the peak known as Black Snout. Inside there's room for everyone - with a large living room with wide pine floors & original paneling, dining room, kitchen, lots of bedrooms, an office, attic, etc. There's a great screen porch out back! Sandwich is a quaint New England quintessential town where residents enjoy Squam Lake, known from the movie "On Golden Pond". At the Maple Ridge Farm, there's a rich history dating all the way back to 1794 when this home was built for one of the Quimby's, a prominent family in early Sandwich! The current owners have been part of its history for 45 years. Let your story begin here!
