About this House

Set on the crest of Hanover’s prestigious Occom Ridge, The Carleton House is a landmark residence with deep roots in Dartmouth College’s history. Originally built circa 1897, this shingle-style estate combines timeless New England architecture with a coveted in-town location, just a short walk to Pine Park, Dartmouth’s campus, and downtown Hanover. Sited on 1.2 beautifully elevated acres with 273 feet of frontage and sweeping western views over the Connecticut River, the property is accessed via a private driveway, offering both privacy and proximity. The main house features seven bedrooms and is rich in period detail, graciously scaled, light-filled rooms, original hardwood floors, raised paneling, wainscoting, crown moldings, and other hallmarks of its era. Thoughtful updates over time have preserved its historic character while enhancing everyday comfort. The first floor includes an open kitchen/family room, formal living and dining rooms, a spacious front entry hall, rear mudroom, and a half bath. Upstairs, four bedrooms, including a generous primary suite, and a laundry room occupy the second level, with three additional bedrooms and a study on the third. Connected via enclosed breezeway and exterior walkway is a distinct four-bedroom accessory dwelling, a rare feature in this neighborhood. With its own kitchen, two bathrooms, and an open living/dining area, this second home offers versatile living for extended family, guests, or rental income. Elegant, enduring, and intrinsically tied to the fabric of Hanover, The Carleton House is a singular opportunity to own one of the town’s most admired historic homes.

    "Good schools Close to skiing, hiking, swimming areas. Lovely town on the east of the Connecticut River. College town , Dartmouth. Pedestrians rarely look before they walk so drive very carefully! 😉 "
  • Matt G.
    "There are many dogs in the area, but rental properties will often have rules regarding pets. Dogs are frequently around, though, and owners often walk them up and down our street every day. There’s a lot of green space and good trails close by if you want to walk dogs on something other than pavement as well."
  • Jakeblum36
    "Yes, there are many places to walk dogs. People are friendly and respectful. There is easy access to woods trails in the warmer months. "
  • Stewater
    "If you want to live outside a city but still have lots of activity, this is a good place to consider. Friendly, small, a place to raise kids and enjoy life."
  • adragstriplx
    "I grew up in the area myself. It's pretty high end stuff."
  • Rosemary S.
    "Great place to live. Quiet, clean, plenty to do within a few miles. Good restaurants, interesting art galleries. Everything you would expect of a college town. Living out of town just a few miles makes it a perfect living area. Quiet day to day living, plenty of fun activities just 4 miles away. Great biking, hiking, excellent downtown Hanover area."
