Just five minutes from downtown Dover, this is the dream property for anyone seeking the classic New England lifestyle without sacrificing convenience. Set on a remarkable 4.09-acre lot, this historic New Englander farmhouse offers a rare combination of character, flexibility, and space. Owned by the same family for more than 80 years, the property was once part of the expansive holdings of James Goodwin, whose land stretched far beyond the boundaries seen today. Surrounded by mature trees, expansive lawns, blueberry bushes, and a productive asparagus patch, the setting feels distinctly rural while remaining minutes from shopping, dining, schools, and commuter routes. Inside, over 4,600 square feet of living space blends historic charm with everyday functionality. Authentic wide pine flooring, exposed hand-hewn beams, timber framing, custom millwork, built-in shelving, and preserved architectural details showcase the home's New England roots. The flexible layout includes five bedrooms, several additional rooms currently used as bedrooms or offices, a first-floor bedroom, full bath, first-floor laundry, loft-style flex space, and a partial in-law setup. The standout feature is the impressive great room, where soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed timber details, and a custom-built wet bar create an exceptional gathering space. Large sliding doors open to the acreage beyond, filling the room with natural light and creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Outside, you'll find a beautiful in-ground pool, firepit area, and plenty of open space for recreation, gardening, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Solar panels add modern energy efficiency while complementing the property's blend of historic character and thoughtful updates. This is one to see for yourself-a home rich in history, loaded with versatility, and offering acreage, privacy, and convenience in one of the Seacoast's most desirable locations.
