House Crazy Sarah has a soft spot for these charming New Englanders…
Set on 5 acres in the quaint village of Gilsun, New Hampshire, this 1851 Colonial is the epitome of New England charm.
It is located at 24 Main Street and it is currently listed for sale for $249,900.
Have a look inside…
The home has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in just over 2,000 square feet.
The decor is a mix of country primitive and old-world charm.
The kitchen has been renovated & modernized but still fits well with the character of the home.
It has the most adorable breakfast nook with a built-in window seat:
The main living area looks like it was originally 2 or more rooms opened up to one large room:
The portrait of the mysterious woman above the sofa fits with the room so perfectly!
The neutral, natural color scheme is very calming and peaceful.
Wide pine floors and a woodstove grace this humble room.
On the stair landing, the owners have on display their antique gramophone, telephone, books, and records.
Our kind of people!
The upper-level bedrooms have high enough ceilings for a four-poster bed:
This house is a bit reminiscent of the Funny Farm house, another great New England old house.
The second floor boasts a cozy TV/family room:
It is interesting how the windows are up high – almost like garden-level windows:
Another charming bedroom:
And another high window!
Look how sweet the bathroom is:
The home and grounds seem to be well cared for.
The barn has an unfinished bonus space in the loft:
Too bad the photos were taken on a rainy day!
But even the grey can’t dampen that old New England charm.
