Property Description

Welcome to the Cyrus Morse House (c. 1870), a classic New Englander nestled on a tree-lined street just steps from vibrant downtown Exeter. This historic gem sits on an oversized lot boasting a rare, park-like arboretum nurtured over the last quarter-century. The enchanting grounds feature exceptional specimen plantings, including a massive Maple, Hemlocks, Japanese Maples, a Stewartia tree, and a brilliant Blue Spruce, creating a private downtown oasis. Inside, the home showcases nineteenth-century craftsmanship with high ceilings, generous room proportions, and a rare architectural feature: two graceful, curved interior walls. Original light fixtures and authentic push-button switches preserve the home's historic soul, while its enduring durability is anchored by a substantial stone foundation and an attic structure supported by massive, hand-hewn, bark-covered timber beams. Steeped in local lore, the property was once home to Exeter's oldest living citizen, William Langley, and later to Harvard graduate Adele Holevas, a beloved Phillips Exeter Academy music teacher who taught piano in the front living room. Don't miss this extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of authentic Exeter heritage and enjoy the timeless ambiance of a true neighborhood landmark.
