New roofing on the front portion of the residence adds to the appeal of this distinctive New England country property, now offered at a superior value. The Bow Cape combines character, craftsmanship, and beautifully cultivated gardens with a thoughtful, flexible layout. Exposed beams, wood floors, and timeless architectural details complement a formal living room with a Rumford wood-burning fireplace and expansive windows overlooking the private grounds. The spacious dining room flows into an expanded and remodeled kitchen with maple cabinetry, stone countertops, new appliances, and a luxury Verona five-burner double gas range. A handcrafted sunburst gable and mountain carving add a distinctive artistic touch. The first-floor primary suite features vaulted ceilings, while a two-level addition provides a generous dressing room, laundry, and studio. Upstairs, two bedrooms with wide pine floors share a bath, while a fourth bedroom or media room with its own private bath offers flexibility for guests, family, or work. The grounds are exceptional, with perennial gardens, raised beds, a vegetable garden, strawberry patch, grapevines, and fruit trees including nectarine, apple, plum, cherry, and apricot. A greenhouse, flagstone patio, and deck invite outdoor enjoyment, while a tranquil pond, custom Japanese bridge, torii gate, meditative garden, and outdoor shower create a peaceful retreat. Additional features include a Vermont Castings wood stove, a dual water filtration system, a portable generator, a three-car heated garage with workshop space, and a 20x12 ShelterLogic shed. Minutes from Crotched Mountain Golf Club and Skiing, Scobie Pond, and Dinsmore Brook Conservation Area, this distinctive property offers an exceptional opportunity and value.
