Property Description 

Welcome home to 16 Birchwood Place. One of the most unique and luxurious homes in New England. Part of Dover's rich history, the home dates back to 1865 where it originally served as a water tank for wealthy entrepreneur Jonathan Sawyer's Dover mansion. Commonly known as the "Round House" and featured on NH Chronical, this home has seen many recent modernizations over the years. As you come up the long driveway you are greeted by a wonderfully landscaped exterior, granite steps and stamped concrete walkway. The yard is fenced in and offers plenty of privacy. When entering the home through the 8 ft. arched entranceway you are immediately taken in by the home's beauty. The large custom kitchen features leathered granite counter tops, top of the line Café Collection stainless steel appliances, restaurant grade exhaust hood, six burner stove and even a refrigerator with 6 internal cameras. As you walk through the 8 brick thick home you find the master bedroom with attached bathroom. The custom walk in shower with trickling rock feature offers an enormous amount of room. Part of the shower was constructed using a 300 pound granite remnant of the historic General Sullivan Bridge. As you enter the lower level of the home you find a private living room area and adjacent bedroom. From here, things get interesting..... Secret doorways? hidden bedroom? Private basement bar? There is not enough room here to describe this home. Showings begin at the open house on 07/15.
