6 Old Common RD Dublin, NH 03444

This majestic Colonial home housed the first "free library" in America in 1822 by Rev. Levi W. Leonard. It has been carefully restored by the current owners bringing many upgrades which blend nicely with its historic charm. Located just above the center oval of Dublin NH, home to Yankee Magazine, The Dublin School, hiking trails to summit of Mt Monadnock, and pristine Dublin Lake across the street, it blends privacy behind its lush landscaping with easy access to state roads to Peterborough to the east or Keene to the west. The first floor has tiled floor mud room with lots of storage, fully applianced kitchen open to family room/den with fireplace and wood paneled walls, the dining room has large window overlooking front lawn, the library with book shelves and Delft tiles surrounding the fireplace, a front to back living room has space for a grand piano, and a half bath, spacious screen porch and two car garage complete the first floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms each with their own private bath, plus a master with en suite and walk-in closet plus a laundry room and storage closets. Two staircases make access easy from both ends of the house. The "barn" is a 1122 sq ft guest house with balcony bedroom, a two car open bay garage and screen porch. A workshop with woodstove is at the top of the driveway. Landscaping was done by a local artisan who filled the grounds with maples, blueberries, crabapples, rhododendrons, hosta and azaleas and even a water feature.
