Orford Road Residence sits at 16 Orford Road in Lyme, New Hampshire, overlooking conserved land with a peaceful view of open fields and pretty sunsets to the west, and you'll see there's plenty of space outside with a level, landscaped, and fenced-in backyard plus a porch, patio, gardens, and spots for sitting in the sun or shade whenever the weather's nice. This is a 10-resident assisted living community focused on giving seniors a homelike, comfortable place with seven bedrooms and three bathrooms, and folks living here get help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, transfers, medication reminders, and there's always someone around for supervision day or night. The dining room's set up for meal times that include special options for allergies and diabetes, and they do full housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and even help with moving in and getting settled, which is helpful when change feels like a lot to handle at once.
The main building, built in 1987, covers over 7,200 square feet and has a main residence, an attached auxiliary dwelling with a private deck, and extras like a big garage, outbuildings, and sheds for storage, so there's always somewhere to put things, and the pool, hot tub, and pool house in the yard let people enjoy a good swim or soak when the day's been long. Inside, there's a living room with a fireplace, a spacious kitchen for gathering, a media and recreation room downstairs, an exercise room, an office, mudroom, and easy-access laundry so seniors don't have to worry about stairs for everyday tasks. The whole property spreads across 8.97 acres-plenty of room for gardens and a bit of wandering, and with average upkeep, it stays easy to get around both indoors and out.
Appliances include a dishwasher, dryer, microwave, electric range, and refrigerator, and there's Wi-Fi and cable or satellite TV for anyone who wants to stay connected, with phone service for keeping in touch with friends or family. The home uses oil, hot water, and mini split units for heating, paired with mini split air conditioning to stay cool in the summer months. All spaces are wheelchair accessible, and staff help with transfers and mobility as needed. The place also organizes daily and community-sponsored activities, social events, and movie nights so there are plenty of ways to stay active or just enjoy some company. The listing comes from Snyder Donegan Real Estate Group with Zoe Hathorn Washburn as the agent, and the property connects easily to essential services, healthcare, and the Lyme School District, with Lyme Elementary School nearby for visits or volunteering if anyone wants to be around kids. Everything at Orford Road Residence aims to make daily life easier, while giving seniors enough freedom and support to live comfortably.
