Set on a lovely sprawling lawn on 7.08 acres in Thetford, this 1994 three-level Cape-style home offers 2,343 square feet of living space with seven finished rooms, including three bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The home features a 1¾-story design, wood clapboard exterior, an asphalt roof, and newer gas hot water heater. The mostly finished basement provides an additional usable storage room along with a gracious family room with private bath (for guests). At the same time, the property also includes a detached 24’ x 26’ garage, small barn with two stalls, a shed for a chicken or two, and full access to Zebedee Brook! The lot offers a combination of homesite and additional acreage, providing plenty of room to enjoy the surrounding Vermont landscape. Additional highlights include a 14’ x 16’ kitchen with island, a spacious 24’ x 14’ living room, hardwood flooring, and a walkout lower level. Comfort and efficiency are enhanced by mini-split heating and cooling, multi-zone propane heat, a 200+ amp electrical service and a generator. The property is served by a private drilled well and on-site septic. Outdoor features include garden space, natural shade and a porch, while the detached two-car garage offers generous room for vehicles and extra attic storage. The level, landscaped country setting has approximately 225 feet of frontage on a paved, publicly maintained road and is near trails and schools, including Thetford Academy. Conveniently located on Godfrey Road with easy access to I-91 and nearby Thetford and Upper Valley amenities. Dartmouth College is just 10 minutes away! A property with space, outbuildings, and acreage ready for its next chapter. ~Interior photos have been electronically decluttered~
What came first? The road or the home? In this case, the original settler (Mr. Tucker himself) made such a statement here that they named the whole road after him, so you know you are pulling up to something really special. Perched on ~10 acres: five sun-drenched, usable acres surrounded by five acres of private, wooded buffer. This estate is designed for animal lovers and green thumbs alike. The perimeter is fenced to keep your four-legged friends in and hungry deer away from your prized perennials, while an abundant garden features smart drainage and irrigation to naturally keep everything blooming. Practical additions like a newly added standby Kohler generator (2023), room for all your toys, and an oversized attached RV bay that opens directly into a partially finished walkout lower level. Speaking of the lower level, it is full of unmatched personality featuring a Vermont soapstone stove for cozy nights, rare copper piping, a full-blown bomb shelter, and an extra bathroom. Is anyone thinking ADU or In-Law apartment?? The driveway extends from the front two bay garage right up to the lower for a separate entrance. The driveway and main yard is nice and wide and flat. There is a cute little chicken coop and the start of a run-in barn! Come check it out. Quirky, fun, extraordinarily private, and completely stunning, this is a home you simply have to experience in person. Open house on Saturday, August 29th from 11-1 PM.
