This stately and historic home provides 5+ acres of hilltop privacy overlooking the Connecticut River, just minutes from downtown Hanover; this is the Wilder Estate. Built in 1892 as a retreat for Charles Wilder (benefactor of Wilder, VT, and Wilder Hall at Dartmouth), the property blends historic beauty and character with modern sophistication. The Wilder Estate is a gateway to a lifestyle of simple elegance, privacy, comfort, and adventure. Meticulous perennial gardens, mature trees, a gorgeous wraparound porch, and river views create an idyllic setting for sipping your morning coffee and listening to the music of songbirds. Convenient river access provides an outlet for adventure: kayaking at sunrise, pontoon boat outings, and evening strolls along the river’s edge in adjacent Cole Park. Inside the home, the grand foyer features a sweeping staircase, original pocket doors, wood paneling, and gleaming birdseye maple floors. Bathed in natural light, expansive living areas create an inviting atmosphere for intimate family gatherings and grand entertaining. The home has been respectfully updated, sparing no expense to maintain timeless appeal. The spacious kitchen includes high-end appliances, soapstone counters, quality cabinetry, and a custom butcher block island. The primary bath provides spa-like comfort. Other distinctions include a generous in-law apartment and an impressive three-story carriage house. This unique property is a rare find and an exquisite home.
