Multi-Potential! Please don’t miss this amazing home! One of the most iconic properties in Derry, this residence is not just a home it’s a living piece of town history. Built in 1892, first owned by the Abbot family, then by the Moody family who owned Moody's hardware store. Later purchased by the Low family, a name well known locally with a building at Pinkerton Academy dedicated in their honor. In 2000, the current owners purchased the home from the Lows and undertook a complete refurbishment, sparing no expense. Every corner was touched with the highest-quality materials, carefully blending historic character with modern updates to create a residence that is as timeless as it is move-in ready. Inside, original details like solid wood trim, doors, and period hardware shine alongside updated finishes. Hardwood floors on the main level complement ceramic and carpeting upstairs, while large, sun-filled rooms provide the perfect setting for family gatherings, casual evenings, or formal entertaining. The property itself is equally impressive, featuring a spacious yard and an in-ground pool that creates a private oasis for summer enjoyment. Whether you’re hosting a party or relaxing quietly, this home is built for both comfort and lifestyle. More than just a home, this is a rare chance to become the next steward of Derry’s history, owning a residence tied to some of the community’s most notable families. All within minutes of downtown shops, dining, schools, and commuter routes.
