Envision a "post card-picturesque" New Hampshire neighborhood made
up of charming capes, stately saltboxes, and hip-roofed colonials.
Experience a "new-old world" development devoted to quality over
quantity footage, simple craftsmanship over mass production motif,
and traditional over trendy architecture. Discover Olde Colony, a
community of faithfully reproduced 18th century homes, at New Boston.
Differentiated by paint color, architectural details, and landscaping,
each home is crafted to compliment and blend beautifully into the
replicated period of Olde Colony. Admire the traits of these
traditional homes, compliments of their historical lineagethe raw
beauty of hemlock siding, the coziness of a masonary Rumford fireplace,
the character of wide pine flooring, the detail of raised panel
wainscoting and walls, and the nature of hand hued ceiling beams.
Appreciate not inheriting the financial and labor intensive commitment
of their ancestral relatives. It does not take long to travel back in
time; Olde Colony, nestled into the northeast nook of Joe English Hill
among acres of rolling pine knolls and graced with spectacular views of
Mount Uncanoonuc, is a convenient 15 minutes from major highways. Bring
the warmth and charm of yesteryear into your life. Reserve your place
in history at Olde Colony.
Directions From Interstate 93 - South from Concord - North from Massachusetts: Take 101 West to Route 114, turn left at the first set of lights onto New Boston Road, follow for 6 miles. Take a right onto Bedford Road, and stay on Bedford Road, bearing left until you come to McCurdy Road (you will see the "Sunday Rock" landmark), take left.
