This River Road contemporary sits on a ten-acre parcel with over 1300 feet of direct Connecticut River frontage, offering panoramic views up and down the waterway and across to the hills of Vermont. Originally constructed in 1983 with subsequent updates, the refined home offers sun-filled spaces and long sightlines. An open floorplan offers flexible rooms that lend themselves to various potential uses, including home office, media room, and studio space. The majority of the acreage is an open meadow providing pastoral views and personal recreational terrain. Stone walkways circle the house, leading to a private dock and outdoor living spaces. The uniquely private setting is just minutes from downtown Hanover, Dartmouth College, and Dartmouth Health.
