Welcome to 359 Poor Farm Road—tucked away on 7+ private acres in serene New Ipswich, this exceptional home blends space, comfort, and privacy with a warm, welcoming ambiance. Originally a passive-solar contemporary colonial, it’s been thoughtfully expanded, renovated, and upgraded over time into its refined form. Architectural details and custom touches add unique character and charm. The 6-bedroom, 4½-bath layout spans 4,600+ sq ft—ideal for multigenerational living, remote work, or simply spreading out. The main level boasts a spacious kitchen with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, formal dining room, oversized living room, office, and handy half bath; the cedar-paneled sunroom overlooks lush gardens and woodlands. Six generous bedrooms include a luxurious primary suite with ensuite bath, private balcony, and built-in sauna, along with a second full bath and laundry. The attached wing offers two separate living areas—each with its own layout and full bath—perfect for guests, rental income, or extended family. Additional highlights include a finished,oversized two-car garage, built-ins, ample storage, mature landscaping, paved driveway, and expansive lawns. Quiet privacy just minutes from town enhances the appeal. The property also has potential for an additional subdividable lot (subject to approval), and the seller may offer financing for part of the purchase.
