Cozy farmhouse (east side), 2 bedrooms, in the heart of nature's playground

Welcome to 76 East, a renovated 100 year old farmhouse located in the heart of nature's playground. Snowmobile, ATV, hiking and horse trails are within minutes of the house. Skiing at Black Mountain, Sunday River, and Mt. Abram is within a short drive. Fishing, hunting, biking, boating, swimming and more are available within our town. Our cozy rural town will provide you with a quiet "get away from it all" atmosphere. This guesthouse suits all of your basic needs for a comfortable stay.

The farmhouse is a duplex. The other unit in the duplex (West side) is occupied by a small bookkeeping office that operates approximately 8 am- 4 pm, Monday-Friday. The two sides are securely separated. The bookkeeping business is an independent renter and does not manage or operate the Airbnb rental unit. The hosts live within walking distance and are available to help meet your needs and make your stay a comfortable one.

Pets - We welcome your well-trained, house-broken furry companion with pre-approval. We will provide furniture coverings if your pet would like to join you on the comfy seats. We ask that pets are crated whenever the owner is out of the house. Pets should be able to be reasonably quiet most of the time out of respect for the West Side tenants. Due to the shared yard, all animal waste MUST be picked up in the yard. Please know that Andover has a strict leash law and there are several dogs in the neighborhood. All dogs must be leashed outdoors.

Due to insurance requirements, we must know the name, age, and breed (or mix of breeds) in advance. Puppies, kittens, and certain dog breeds are prohibited by our insurance. Each pet must be pre-approved by the host when making the reservation. Once a reservation is made, you will need to send a photo of the pet to the host to keep on record for insurance purposes.

Children - The original construction of the farmhouse is over 100 years old. While much of the house has been updated and renovated over the years, it still retains the charm of some of its classic features. For this reason, this house may not be suitable for the safety of young children and toddlers. Please discuss any children staying in the house prior to making a reservation to ensure a pleasant and safe stay.
