37 PORTER ROAD, Andover

Listing broker remarks

Welcome to 37 Porter Road. Where new construction meets a timeless classic home. Over 60% of this home is new construction, seamlessly blended with the original structure, while the historic portion has been fully updated throughout, giving you the soul of an 18th-century antique with the performance of a new home. Built in 1758 by Hezekiah Ballard and transferred to Thomas Manning in 1771, the home remained in the Manning family for over two centuries, until 1999, and is proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places as one of Andover's most historically significant homes. This wonderfully restored and renovated home sits at the corner of one of Andover's finest neighborhoods, in the heart of the coveted Pike School and Phillips Academy area. The kitchen and all 5.5 baths have been thoughtfully and recently created, along with every major system, including electric and heating, so timeless charm comes paired with modern-day reliability. The first floor offers a spacious country kitchen with gas fireplace, dining room with hardwood floors, family room with a Colonial cooking fireplace and coffered ceiling, living room with Colonial cooking fireplace, and an office with coffered ceiling. The second-floor features 5 bedrooms and 5 baths, two of the bedrooms with wide pine floors.
