Located in the Historic District of Gilmanton, the circa 1793 Temperance Tavern offers a rare opportunity to own a landmark property with strong commercial and mixed-use potential. This 14-room colonial with an attached two-story barn sits on 1.1 acres and has served as a stagecoach stop on the Canada-to-Dover route, as well as a post office, courthouse, Masonic lodge, and boarding house for students of the Gilmanton Academy. Highly visible location near the Gilmanton Four Corners intersection of Routes 107 & 140, the property features a unique triangular lot with road frontage on all three sides totaling approximately 1, 050 feet - offering exceptional exposure, access, and signage potential for a variety of commercial uses. Period details include six open-hearth fireplaces, original Indian shutters, and Moses Eaton stenciling—ideal for hospitality, event, or destination-based business concepts. With 5+ bedrooms, 5.5 baths, (1 is a private owner’s suite), the layout supports boutique inn/B&B use, retreat or wellness center, professional offices, café/tea room, gallery space, or a live/work investment (subject to town approvals). The attached barn and improved garage provide flexible space for event hosting, studio/workshop use, storage, or expansion of operations. Site layout allows for on-site parking and outdoor gathering areas, enhancing its appeal for weddings, small events, or seasonal business models. Over $100, 000 of recent upgrades, including a new well, extensive plumbing improvements, and structural restoration to the barn. The detached garage was raised, the foundation updated with a concrete floor, and a new roof (2024). Landscaping, cleanup, and site improvements further enhance usability while preserving historic character. High-visibility, story-rich property with strong branding potential in a quintessential New Hampshire setting. Buyer to perform due diligence with the town regarding zoning and permitted uses. Private showings by appointment only.
