Property Description

A rare opportunity to own one of Hanover's most distinctive estate properties. Set on nearly two beautifully landscaped acres framed by classic New England stone walls, this exceptional shingle-style Victorian seamlessly blends timeless architecture with modern amenities and extraordinary versatility.Originally rebuilt in 1940 as an English Tudor, the home underwent an extensive reconstruction in 1994-1995, when it was taken down to the studs and reimagined as the stunning residence enjoyed today. Virtually every major component was replaced, including the electrical, plumbing, insulation, windows, and mechanical systems. The renovation also introduced the spectacular family room, heated four-car garages, wraparound farmer's porch, expansive side and rear entertainment decks, and rebuilt stone walls along Washington Street.Designed for everyday living and memorable entertaining, the sun-filled family room serves as the heart of the home, flowing effortlessly to the kitchen and outdoor living spaces. A finished attic provides additional flexible space ideal for guests, a home office, fitness room, playroom, or media room.Outside, enjoy beautifully maintained grounds supported by a private artesian well and irrigation system, an NBA regulation-size basketball court that also accommodates tennis and pickleball, and a natural gas-fed Weber grill that makes outdoor entertaining effortless.Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and business owners will appreciate dual heated two-car garages with adjoining workshop. The impressive approximately 32' x 51', three-story barn, originally designed as a horse barn and complete with four stalls, offers endless possibilities for equestrian pursuits, hobbies, storage, or a home-based business. The expansive hay loft, complete with basketball hoops, has been the backdrop for decades of family memories.Additional highlights include efficient natural gas heat with cast-iron baseboard radiators, a whole-house automatic standby generator, and a brand-new architectural roof installed in June 2026.Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved by the same family for more than three decades, 78 Washington Street offers a truly rare opportunity to own one of Hanover's landmark properties, just minutes from Route 3, shopping, dining, and Hanover's highly regarded schools.
