196 Douglas Road brings together all the elements of an exceptional country home. Located in a well-established neighborhood of other fine Norwich properties, the setting is private but still just minutes from the center of Norwich Village, Dartmouth College, and downtown Hanover, NH. Built by the current owners based on the exact design of a home they built previously, the interior is a combination of both formal and informal spaces with a focus on flow, volume, and an open floor plan where it counts. The social center of the home is the spacious eat-in kitchen with a dramatic Viking range and hood and the great room with a cathedral ceiling and wood-burning fireplace. Oversized twelve over twelve windows, open hallways and long sight lines, strategically placed skylights, and a southerly orientation bring abundant natural light to every corner of the interior. A formal living room, dining room, dramatic entry, home office, mudroom, half bath and 3-season screened porch complete the first floor. The second floor of the main house offers three bedrooms, a shared bath, and a spacious primary bedroom suite with a fireplace, a walk-in closet, and a large en-suite bathroom plus an attached, sunny private office/sitting room. The landscaping of the ten-acre lot features extensive, terraced gardens with established perennials, abundant stonewalls and pathways, stone patios and sitting areas, a pond, open lawn and recreation space, fenced vegetable and herb gardens, and a charming potting shed graced with a rose bower. A large screened-in porch also offers a pleasant retreat when one is not out of doors. Ideally located two hours from Boston, four hours from NYC, and three hours from Montreal, world-class recreational, educational, and cultural opportunities abound -- from skiing at Killington to classes at Dartmouth and everything in between.
