Description

A rare chance to live in a home that feels like a story. Welcome to one of Hampton's oldest treasures-an early 18th century Colonial residence built in 1723 known as the "Mosley House". Set along the Main Street corridor referred to as the Hampton Hill Historic District. Set on 1.2 acres at the corner of Main Street and Hammond Hill Road, this is a landmark home recognized by the National Register of Historical Places. Period architecture shines throughout the 4,100+ square feet with 3 fireplaces, a wood roof, wide plank floors, plaster walls, wood paneling details, high ceilings, and both a grand front staircase and a second "back" servant staircase. Inside, the home offers 4-5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, a formal dining room with a barrel back corner hutch, two sitting rooms with fireplaces, a library or den, and a dedicated home office with a separate entrance once used for a home business. The kitchen blends period charm with modern function, anchored by a large stone fireplace, butcher block island, soapstone counters, built ins, and glass paned cabinetry. Several rooms throughout the home include built in shelving and hidden closets. The terraced yard is framed by classic New England stone walls, offering a peaceful outdoor setting that complements the home's historic charm. The craftsmanship, scale, and authenticity are what makes this property truly one of a kind.
