About this home
Warm wood, soaring timber frame and 4.2 private wooded acres set the tone for this one-of-a-kind home at 156 Prospect Hill Road. Built in 1980 with a passive solar design, this is one of the original Bensonwood timber frame homes, crafted by the New Hampshire builder known for helping lead the revival of timber framing in America. Exposed posts, beams and knee braces frame the rooms, paired with honey-toned wood ceilings and hardwood floors. The home went through extensive renovation in 2015-2016, including the roof, windows, kitchen, bathrooms, plumbing, electrical, heating system, and interior finishes. The kitchen features granite counters, a center island and generous cabinetry, and flows into a dining area anchored by a wood stove on a brick hearth. A wall of windows in the living room brings the surrounding forest inside, while the family room offers a classic brick fireplace for cozy New England evenings. The screened porch is a natural extension of the living space, perfect for summer dinners and quiet mornings. A first floor bedroom adds flexibility for guests or single-level living. Upstairs, a vaulted bedroom with an arched window opens through sliding doors to a private deck overlooking the trees, and a second bedroom tucked under the skylit eaves offers room to spread out. The property abuts protected conservation land, offering lasting privacy and a wooded backdrop that will stay just as it is f A detached two-car garage, radiant propane heat and cable internet round out the home. Hancock is one of the Monadnock Region’s most picturesque villages, home to Norway Pond, the Hancock Inn (the state’s oldest continuously operating inn, dating to 1789), Fiddleheads Cafe and the Harris Center for Conservation Education with miles of hiking and snowshoe trails. Peterborough’s shops, restaurants and arts scene are a short drive away. Schedule your private showing and experience the craftsmanship, warmth and wooded privacy of this timber frame retreat....
