5 bedroom, 2 bath Manchester home in a highly functional ski location: about 8 minutes to Bromley and under 25 minutes to both Magic and Stratton, plus roughly 2 minutes to downtown Manchester and 1 minute to Route 7 for straightforward access in all conditions. The setting supports frequent winter use and works equally well for year-round occupancy. The house underwent a full gut renovation in 2018, so the major work is done. Kitchen and baths were rebuilt, wiring and plumbing updated, and all appliances are 2018 or newer. A new furnace in 2024 and mini-split systems added in 2021 provide efficient, reliable heating and cooling for heavy cold-weather use. The 5 bed / 2 bath layout offers capacity for multiple occupants and extended stays, with sufficient separation to remain comfortable over longer periods rather than just occasional weekends. Outside, the newly fenced backyard and established gardens create contained, usable outdoor space that works well for everyday living and outdoor evenings without the overhead of large acreage. The basement is dry and straightforward excellent storage for ski and outdoor gear now and realistically finishable if a buyer wants a gear room, additional living area, or another bathroom, subject to buyer due diligence and local approvals. The property has an exceptional history of short-term and seasonal occupancy with detailed records available; all figures are historical only and are not intended as predictions of future results, and buyers should rely on their own analysis and professional advice regarding any potential income or investment use.
