SOLD | Built circa 1910 | 6,645 Sq. Ft. | 9 Bedrooms | 7 Bathrooms | 12.94 Acres
Originally referred to as lavish, this home was constructed in 1910 as a summer retreat for Professor Franklin W. Hooper on his ancestral farmland. Spanning 6,645 square feet, this residence has maintained its luxurious character over the years and was sold recently for $812,000 in Walpole, New Hampshire. The property underwent a complete renovation in 2000, made possible by the discovery of the house’s original blueprints and construction tools. It features three full levels packed with remarkable details, including nine bedrooms and seven bathrooms. Highlights of the home include an impressive entry hall, both formal and casual living areas, exquisite mouldings, elliptical arches, stunning hardwood floors, leaded glass doors, a prominent staircase connecting all three floors, a secondary staircase, and ten functional fireplaces. Additionally, a barn equipped with two stalls and a tack room was constructed, accompanied by a fenced pasture and an intricate chicken coop. Completing the extensive 12.94-acre lot is a well-lit basketball court positioned on a higher elevation.
