Cornish NH Real Estate
Cornish runs along the Connecticut River in Sullivan County, connected to Windsor, Vermont by the Cornish-Windsor Covered Bridge - one of the longest wooden covered bridges in the United States at roughly 460 feet. Saint-Gaudens National Historical Park preserves the former home, studios, and gardens of sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens along Route 12A, where views of the river and the Vermont hills across it give the property one of the most distinctive settings in the Upper Valley. The Cornish Colony - an artist community that gathered here in the late 19th and early 20th centuries - left a cultural legacy that still informs the town's quiet identity.
