HISTORIC RENOVATION
WINNER: Historic Weare
Schoolhouse
Inscription Architects in Weare
603-851-6100 * inscriptionarchitects.com
Listed on the U.S. Register of Historic Places,
this 1856 building was a public school until 1952
and a grange hall until the 1980s. Completely
stripped inside save for the historic curved
wooden staircase, pressed tin ceiling and original
hardwood floors, it was a perfect remodeling
opportunity for the owners, who designed
the existing brick shell to accommodate a
three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom house
that also doubles as their architecture office. In
addition to the necessary systems and structural
work - installing a well, new septic, shoring up
the foundations of the additions, new wiring, insulation,
dry wall and other - the design team
worked hard to retain the historic nature of the
original building. The windows were replaced
with exact replicas, paint colors were matched,
and the belfry refurbished. For interior design,
they chose an eclectic mixture of the original,
such as leaving some of the brick walls exposed,
along with a bit of art deco styling and some
modern touches.
What the judges said: This renovation looks
like fun. The well-placed and simple insertion
of the home program continues to allow one to
appreciate the history and details of the former
schoolhouse.

A town landmark, the c. 1853 Greek Revival
farmhouse and the barn it was connected to
had deteriorated to the point where the home
was demoed to the studs and sheathing and
then meticulously reconstructed. Structural
elements were replaced, reinforced and leveled
throughout. An addition makes room for a side
foyer, powder room and back staircase. Due to
its girth, the ell is finished to look like a quintessential
New England barn. A combination of
cedar planks and pine shiplap flank the exterior.
Exterior millwork was restored and replicated
in new details like the charming veranda. Interior
elements were restored and repurposed,
including the waterglass front entry, lighting,
c. 1910 solid doors and heart pine flooring. A
vintage balustrade was sourced for the great
room. Brick walls and interior granite-block
were exposed. A reimagined floor plan delivers
the perfect blend of custom materials, modern
conveniences and historic charm!
What the judges said: A charming example
of rebuilding with care and preserving this
structure's presence for years to come.
