Community Property Brochure This home is a rare blending of 1738 and 1790 colonial with new 1999 ell, bath and basement. It served as the J. Thing Tavern on “the Avenue,” the main thoroughfare from Brentwood to Exeter in the mid-1700's, and came to be known in the 1800's as “The Pickpocket-Rowell Road House.” This historic colonial post-and-beam farmhouse is private and peaceful and a feast for the senses, while easily accessible to downtown Exeter and Rt 101 (4 mi.), and a couple miles more to Rts 95 and 125. Pickpocket Rd is a highly desirable road in Brentwood, officially designated a “scenic road” and one of the most beautiful. Positioned traditionally on the land, facing south, the sun comes in every side and window as the day goes on, ending in beautiful sunsets. Each room has plenty of light and windows. The living room's French doors look out on the private front yard and paddock. Vaulted ceiling maximizes the light and air, and a wood stove warms it up. Doors open to broad steps to the outside, gardens and slate patio at the antique refurbished shed. The designer kitchen with granite counter-top island separates the work area from two eating areas. Upstairs are four bedrooms and two bathrooms. 2-story timber-frame barn, 38' x 25', 6-stalls, with doors and raised ceilings for horses. The 3.2 acres of manicured organic grounds are a mix of trees, perennials, and fenced pasture.
