This well-maintained 1886 home sited above the road is set on 4.5 scenic acres in the heart of Cornish and offers a rare blend of historic character, flexible living space and modern conveniences. With 3,816 finished square feet, the home features three bedrooms and 2½ baths, including a desirable first-floor primary bedroom with a full bath, plus a convenient half bath on the main level. Freshly painted throughout, the interior showcases a thoughtful layout with a formal dining room, a spacious living room, a newer kitchen, and a separate study or home office. A functional mudroom connects to the attached heated garage, above which are two finished bonus rooms with warm cedar interior walls—ideal for a studio, hobby space, guest rooms, or additional work-from-home options. The land is equally compelling. The main parcel offers privacy and room to roam, while an additional one-acre lot across the road has been landscaped down to the river’s edge, providing peaceful waterfront access and space for gardening. A unique opportunity to own a classic New England home with acreage, river frontage, and versatile spaces—perfect for those seeking character, comfort, and a connection to the outdoors.
