This looks so much like my mother's house in New Hampshire. Hers is circa 1780. The original center chimney w the beehive oven was replaced at some point in the 19 century but other than that the floorplan is almost exact to this one. Hers also has an elle kitchen with a another fireplace that attaches to the barn that was built around 1800. She has it decorated beautifully w period antiques. We took a few beams from her barn when they were doing work on it, to use to shore up and support the middle beam of my Grandparents 2 and a half story cape, 5 miles away, that was built in 1818. I live in that house. I have spent most of my life in old New England beauties❤️❤️

LOVE this home!!! Beautiful!

This is the sort of house that I grew up in, It was a center Chimney cape, that was built in 1807. We lived in it for 104 years. My fathers parents looked at it and then my mother Roger then I lived in it, so there was like three generations of one family living there. It was great I loved it. We finally had to renovate. It will start to renovate it. We left a lot of the old features within it, and one of it was removing 34 coats of paint off by hand. it had wide pine boards on floors and paneling that went halfway up the wall. There is all one piece so you had to take it off carefully so it’s a lot of work. I had to take down the fireplace and chimney fire in there that lasted for four days and once that was out, we took down 30,000 brick by hand and we found the brick apparently when the house was built they made everything right on the spot so we found a brick that said it was 1807 so it was our assumption that the house was built in 1807. It was the first time meeting house been turned into a family house so that the house had history to it was built five years before the Civil War 1812 it was just an awesome place to live at my parents when I bought it from my dad‘s parents for $5000. and I had 150 acres with it was just an awesome place to grow up in!

May have been an old house once, but the beams and brickwork are 20th century. Modern brick, sawmill pine, central heating are a clear indication. Still, it’s a beautiful home with some original elements and modern conveniences. Well done.

This house is well presented. It has good flow and it draws you in.

[@heatherbelle1031]

This is my dream house. It makes my heart happy. Now I just need to win the lottery...😩

[@lovelyday2805]

This my dream home, absolutely perfect 👌

[@luke125]

I love these kinds of houses. We lived in a house in Salem MA built in 1791 and it was a lot like this one.

[@davestelling]

I grew up in a house like this, coastal Maine. Only, ours was the real thing. And, I miss it...

[@landomilknhoney]

I can feel the nighttime drafts already!😅 The upstairs bedroom adjacent to the chimney will be the warmest bedroom. I have lived in old creaky New England houses most of my life that look similar if not exactly what was shown here. And I loved every bit.❤

[@toosile4u]

I loved everything about this house.

[@lindakinsman6215]

Absolutely gorgeous love it. But I would have loved to seen the bathrooms though..

[@TinyAcresFarmHome]

[@trinasmith4326]

[@nancyclark8263]

awesome!

[@kimnash3261]

Loved this house, but wish the tour would have been at a slower pace to take in all the wonderful details

[@joepass1883]

No bathroom shots, sprinted by the dark kitchen

[@robbyburnpipe7840]

it's dark inside

[@Angel-nu7fm]

Stay away from open floor plans....TONS of money to heat and cool. Lot of young folks got taken in by "soaring cathedral ceilings" only to learn they'd be spending 100's every month to heat and cool dead space. Open floor plan are noisy....everyone in essence in one room...give me some compartmentalized rooms anyday.

[@earlynewenglandhomes6228]

Thank you for the concern, we display our model home with open floor plans because that is a popular look with today's home buyers. But we assure you walls can be added anywhere in the home for more compartmentalization, efficiency, and privacy, as well as providing a more historical look.

[@Angel-nu7fm]

Glad to hear that ENEH!!!! So good you offer that to those who want it....a true historic buff like myself would want that!

[@clairegibbons7805]

Agreed Angel but I think 1 room in the house, a conservatory of sorts overlooking nice yard would be nice.

[@robertgrzy4257]

Angel 1 I agree 100%. I built a salt box years ago with vaulted ceiling and balcony open to kitchen living rm dining and upper balcony areas. Not only did furnace run all the time, with hardwood floors it echoed everywhere. ( no private conversations). Fireplace drew unbelievable drafts while sitting on the couch. Therefore, next home will be lower ceilings more doors to close off rooms and more privacy and I think more cozy. Like the old days.

[@donnabarry4735]

I want to live in that house ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ozzyharriet7986]

Well done

[@deborahroy7235]

If I ever hit powerball or mass millons , there's my home !😁😉

[@larryk9496]

I just realized they never show you the room to the left of the entryway downstairs.

[@MTknitter22]

Music choice? Narration needed not music

[@mdwilliams79]

Get a life.

[@verucasalt2391]

Some day........

[@user-ek5pp2wy3g]

Not for real winter :) Looks nice in design, but there are some ridiculous or strange things for saving

[@soglossytv9794]

Just a quess but i would think that if you can afford this house you can afford the heating bill

[@user-ek5pp2wy3g]

@@soglossytv9794 The US architecture has other interesting things. For example, cities brought in later. Underground passages, brick houses. I think that white people lived in the US until the 1600s. And I evaluate this as temporary housing :) (For example, in Detroit, the authorities are destroying luxury houses and theaters. All over the land there. Except London and the Vatican.

[@tinabattaglia6278]

How many sq ft is this home please? Bedrooms/bathrooms? Thank you! :-)

[@robertbryant8134]

Video too dark

[@bethknight4436]

Ok, nice try. Good job on the center chimney. Egregious that a house like this has an open floor plan. I miss the concept of a kitchen as a separate room. A house like this needs a kitchen in its own room. Early Homes did not have a living room. They had a room where the work of the home was done ( spinning wheel, loom, work tables), chairs in front of the fireplace. The overall effect of this house is dreary.
