The New England House Bed & Breakfast is located at 258 Main Street, in Andover, New Hampshire,
abutting the grounds of Proctor Academy—an internationally acclaimed private high school. The
three-story, six-bedroom, New England-style home was built in 1906. It has in excess of 5,700
square feet of living space and sits on a two-acre, beautifully landscaped lot. The house was
converted to a bed & breakfast in 1995 with renovations and improvements throughout. The house
also has an attached apartment and third floor innkeepers quarters.
A retired English Colonel and his wife operated the English House as a successful Bed &
Breakfast for nearly eight years until illness forced them to sell the property. The home was
then occupied for a short time as a single-family home. Enter Chris and Michelle. Seeing the
existing quaintness and potential of the house and grounds, they now desire to recreate the
once successful bed & breakfast inn. After compiling a long list of possible names and themes
with the input of family and friends, Chris and Michelle chose the new name of New England House
Bed & Breakfast, building on the similarity with the old “English House” name and decided to
theme each of the six rooms after one of the six individual New England states.
