222 Old Bay Rd, New Durham, NH 03855

Steeped in history and timeless character, this remarkable New Durham home, The Berry Pike Farm, tells the story of the town itself. Set in the heart of what was once the original town center, the earliest portions of the house and foundation date back to the 1790s, while the home as it stands today was expanded in 1841. Generations of business-minded, civic-spirited families have called it home, shaping not only the property but the community around it. In the 1850s, its halls rang with music, feasts, and dancing as neighbors gathered here in celebration, and today the preserved murals painted by itinerant artists in the Rufus Porter School style still adorn the walls, a treasure over 150 years old. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers three levels of living, including a spacious sun-filled living room, separate parlor, dining room, two wood burning stoves, and a large studio space off the barn. The attached three-level barn, an awe-inspiring 50x60 structure, provides endless possibilities for work or creative pursuits. The home sits on 2.45 acres, including a .63-acre lot across the road with a two-car garage, once the site of the historic Shadrack Allard Tavern - remnants of its foundation and chimney still remain. With just 7+/- owners over more than 230 years, each a careful steward of its legacy, this one-of-a-kind property offers not only a grand home but also a living piece of New Durhams heritage. Showings begin at the open house, Saturday 9/6/25.
