Showings begin Friday 3/25/22. Holding a firm place in the earliest days of the town's history, The Gilbert Cook House was built by two sons of Major James Cook, Sears and Thomas, for their brother Gilbert. Originally located on the east side of Baker Hill Road, the unpretentious quality of this structure tells us much about the life in the early days of Cook City. Inside you'll find the morning light gracing hardwood floors, exposed beams and a simple yet functional floorplan that provides for a remarkable sense of independent spaces. An eat-in kitchen, sitting room with woodstove, formal living room, office and a full bath complete the first floor with three bedrooms, a bonus room and loft round out the second floor. The roughly half acre parcel sits on the banks of a tributary of the Grant Brook and is just a few steps up the hill from the lovely hamlet of Lyme Center and just a few miles from the Dartmouth Skiway and Green Woodlands. A newly permitted three-bedroom septic system as well as a long list of recent improvements made by the current owners to the historic structure make this an attractive and affordable Upper Valley option. A beautiful antique barn in need of some TLC sits just off this quiet road to the south of the house. Surrounded by walking trails and happily in its place - both in terms of history and location - the Gilbert Cook House awaits its new stewards and their dreams. Showings begin Friday 3/25/22.
