*Join us for the open house on October 31st 11AM-1PM for refreshments, autumn activities, and plenty of fun for all* In 1770, New Hampshire was still a British colony, King George III sat on the throne, and American independence was six years away. Long before the stars and stripes flew, Journey's End Farm was already standing in Amherst. This 7.34 acre estate features a Georgian center chimney Colonial, with massive fireplaces once used for cooking and heating. Green Man-style carvings adorn the original staircase, depicting faces intertwined with foliage, a centuries-old European motif associated with nature and renewal. Wide-plank floors secured with rectangular nails, hand-hewn attic beams, and 12-over-8 windows recall its colonial origins. A secret room beneath the stairs adds another layer of intrigue. In the main house, the renovated kitchen features a 12-foot quartz island, and the original well is preserved beneath glass. Upstairs, the primary suite offers radiant heated floors, a soaking tub, and tiled shower. With more than 4,500 square feet and five bedrooms, historic character meets modern comfort. The mid-1800s tavern addition is made for entertaining, with a pool table and private cinema. Additional living space and a sauna round out the amenities. The attached circa 1850 carriage house, once used to serve refreshments to travelers, has its own kitchen, bath, solarium, and two sleeping lofts, with potential for accessory dwelling use subject to required approvals. Outside, a stream, stone walls, hydrangeas, and a heated pool create a picturesque setting. An oversized, beautifully preserved barn with a tack room and multiple loft areas, plus your very own covered bridge, anchor this extraordinary property. The colonies may have given up their king, but who says you can't still get the royal treatment on American soil? *In season pool photos are available as well as the pre-listing appraisal report.
