Escape to Your Private White Mountains Sanctuary Set back from the road on 5.6 ultra-private, potentially subdividable acres, this quintessential 3-BR, 3-BA log home delivers the ultimate blend of rustic mountain character, modern versatility, and peace of mind. Surrounded by mature woods, tranquil wildlife, and newly freshened grounds, this turn-key retreat offers seclusion just 15 minutes from the slopes of Waterville Valley Resort. Step inside to an expansive, sun-filled open layout anchored by soaring exposed timber framing and warm log construction. Designed for quiet relaxation and effortless entertaining, the main living areas flow seamlessly toward the outdoors. Downstairs, the partially finished lower level opens up a world of possibilities: complete with a full bath, a powerful woodstove for cozy supplemental heat, and generous recreational space, it stands ready as an ultimate game room, private guest suite, or high-potential short-term rental setup. Outside caters exceptionally well to craftsmen and outdoor enthusiasts. In addition to a dedicated woodshop situated above the main garage, a separate, large secondary garage/workshop features vast upper-level storage, ideal for snowmobiles, skis, tools, or future studio space. A whole-home Generac standby generator guarantees uninterrupted comfort in every season. Property Highlights Acreage & Privacy: 5.6 secluded, wooded acres set far off the road; prime potential for future subdivision. Flexible Lower Level: Partially finished featuring a full bath, high-efficiency woodstove, and space suited for rentals, a bunkhouse, or media room. Outbuildings: Attached garage with overhead woodshop, plus a secondary detached garage/workshop with upper storage. Systems: Automatic Generac backup generator for seamless four-season security. Location: 15 mins to Waterville Valley; quick access to Loon Mountain, Pemigewasset River and White Mountain trails. Photos are SI enhanced.
