4 Kilrea Road

Description

Rich with character and quietly woven into the fabric of the community, this bungalow-style home dating back to circa 1810 is known to many longtime residents as the Kilrea Schoolhouse, established in 1854. While not formally designated as a historic property by the town, it carries a legacy all its own—one remembered through stories, waves from passersby, and the charming plaque that hangs outside as a sweet reminder of the days when children once gathered here to learn. Converted to a residential home many years ago neighbors and many alike have come to recognize this special home for its charm and character, thriving plant collections and custom yard ornaments, thoughtfully crafted by the current owner. It has long stood as a small but meaningful landmark in Derry—a true local gem cherished by many. This quaint 2-bedroom home is ready for its next chapter. In need of restoration, it presents an opportunity for someone with vision, creativity, and appreciation for history to reclaim the character and charm it once so lovingly displayed. Being sold as-is, this is an excellent chance to bring new energy and ideas and create your own place to call home. Adding to the appeal is a large heated garage/workshop with an attached greenhouse, perfect for those who wish to continue the long-standing tradition of craftsmanship, gardening, or creative pursuits. A home with a story, a soul, and endless potential—waiting for the right steward to bring back its sparkle. Shown by appointment or at the Open House on Saturday April 18th 11:00-1:00
