I am seeking clarification on the description you provide in your article, " “Butternut,” a structure they designed to replicate an old New England farmhouse. A walk inside would have revealed hand-hewn beams, two hearths at the center, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, comfortable furniture and a myriad of antiques the star and her mother purchased in Littleton. The kitchen held a large round table, Glenwood cook stove, rocking chair and hurricane lanterns. Contractor James Viette of Littleton built an adjoining barn from dismantled buildings such as the Easton Post Office. The silo, which he added from the old Vermont barn, still houses a spiral staircase to the second floor and an observation area." The first home described sounds like the house I own exceot that it contains only two bathrooms. The adjoining barn built by Mr. Viette appears to be the second house she had built which is also known as "Butternut" as is rented out by Franconia Notch Vacations. My house is a rental property managed by Peabody and Smith (please see the Peabody and Smith rental property site for details). I also maintain a web site for the Butternut house at www.thebutternutcottage.com. Any additional information you might be able to provide would be wonderful.
