About this home
AN HISTORIC, BRILLANTLY RESTORED GEM ON THE BANKS OF COLD BROOK! The Folsom-Moulton House, previously the South Tamworth post office, has been brought back to far more than its former glory. The renovation is completely finished and this one-of-a-kind home is MOVE-IN READY! A three-car garage with a large usable second story, potential in-law suite in the main home, and brand new EVERYTHING make this property truly shine. Enjoy the best of both worlds with new construction and antique charm all in one. Efficient mini-splits throughout, a stand-by generator, and south-facing garage roof perfect for solar panels are the ideal electric trio! An extra-wide front door welcomes you in to the restored, central staircase. The old refurbished mantelpiece elegantly sits in plain sight, complementing the spacious living room. The kitchen is home to custom maple cabinetry and stainless steel appliances with a 19th century hand-hewn beam running across the ceiling above the breakfast nook. Embrace the view from the deck, or wander down the path to aptly-named Cold Brook for a chilly dip on a hot summer's day. Finish the small detached shed to your liking, which has strong potential for a writer's cabin, play house, tool shed, or sauna. Nearby community keystones include the Bearcamp Center, Union Hall, Tamworth Bakery, Barnstormers Theatre, and more.
