HANOVER, MASSACHUSETTS
A storybook apartment where simpler times still
live
1 bedroom · Post & beam barn, circa 1850 · $1,875/mo
Somewhere between a Pottery Barn catalogue and a page torn from a storybook, tucked at the quiet
crossroads of Morgan's Corner in mid-Hanover, there is a place that feels like the world slowed
down and forgot to keep up. This is that place.
It is the kind of neighborhood where the ice cream truck still comes jingling down the lane on a
summer afternoon, and where — yes, truly — the milkman still makes his rounds. You are not
imagining it. You have simply found one of the last places where such things still happen.
“The last time this apartment came available was nearly six years ago. People just love
living here — and once they settle in, they tend to stay.”
The apartment lives inside a great post-and-beam barn built in 1850, attached to an owner-occupied
antique farmhouse that has been lovingly tended for over thirty years. Think wide pumpkin pine
floors underfoot, original wood beams overhead, and walls painted in colors that belong to another,
gentler era.
Step outside and the world opens up beautifully. Directly across the street, horse, walking, and bike
trails wind through the trees. A few of them lead to Ford Ludham Park — a picnic haven perched
beside a waterfall on the North River, with tables for lunches and seats for those who fish. The
Minutes by car puts you on Route 3 close
enough to everything, far enough from the noise.
The apartment has its own private yard — perfect for a summer barbecue — as well as two separate
private entrances and exits, and a dedicated parking space all your own.
