Facts and practical information

Leavitt Farm is a historic farmstead at 103 Old Loudon Road in eastern Concord, New Hampshire. It consists of three 19th century farm buildings, including the c. 1847 Greek Revival farmhouse, a large c. 1888 shop and barn, and a 19th-century privy which has been converted into a well pumphouse. These buildings were built by Jonathan Leavitt, a farmer and blacksmith, and were later owned by his son Almah, a sign painter. In the 1980s the property was used by the Concord Coach Society as a headquarters and museum facility. The shop building in particular is notable for its adaptive reuse, and for its second floor ballroom space, an unusual location for that type of social space. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. ()
