About this home

With stunning views into New Hampshire showcasing Mt. Monadnock, this one-of-kind property is surrounded on all four sides by conservation land. The "Newcomb Homestead" has been maintained as a nature sanctuary with more than 125 species of birds identified and home to one of the oldest lilac bushes in Franklin County. For sale for the first time in 30 years, this unique property includes a 1789 Cape-style post and beam home with 3-bedrooms and 1-bath, 2-room heated artist studio with eastern views, barn with lower level space for goats/sheep/chickens, hoop greenhouse, abundant gardens, blueberries and fruit trees, and medicinal herbs. Noted photographer Masha Arms and her husband, William, collaborated on writing the History of Leyden (1959) while living on the property. Some original doors remain and a hand pump still serves the kitchen. Updates include windows, exterior doors, and in 2019, a Bosch propane boiler, hot water and well tanks. A privilege to visit, a treasure to own.
