24 Acres in Unity, NH - $499,000
Enjoy the craftsmanship and warmth of this truly exceptional mountain home. With nearly 3,400 sq. ft. of living space, this custom log home has all the warmth and charm you’d expect as well as all the modern conveniences you require all beautifully sited to take advantage of the outstanding mountain views. This one has it all - 24 acres with 15 or so in pasture, in two lots of record, a 4-stall barn and great trail access for hikers and horses.
From the driveway, enter from a covered porch through the mud room (a NH necessity) into the 1990’s addition to the original home. It was stick built and marries nicely to the original log construction, built in the 1980’s. The original section now serves as a very spacious eat-in kitchen. It’s central to everything, bright and airy, with granite counters, custom hickory cabinets, modern appliances and a handy pantry. There is plenty of spa...
From the driveway, enter from a covered porch through the mud room (a NH necessity) into the 1990’s addition to the original home. It was stick built and marries nicely to the original log construction, built in the 1980’s. The original section now serves as a very spacious eat-in kitchen. It’s central to everything, bright and airy, with granite counters, custom hickory cabinets, modern appliances and a handy pantry. There is plenty of space here for an office, sitting area or whatever you choose. The kitchen is open to the great room which keeps you in the company while entertaining. This huge, lodge-style space was recently designed and hand built and by the current owner (a talented builder) with cedar logs from a local mill and the larger white pine logs milled from the property. Enjoy the warmth and beauty of log construction highlighted by a two story, stone-faced fireplace and a wall of windows to admire the view. It is a handsome open room that presently serves as the family and dining room, with a loft above that would make a great office or library. A very generous bedroom with lots of windows, a 3/4 bath and laundry room completes the first floor.
Upstairs is a fabulous master suite – a spacious bedroom with lots of closet and storage space and a lovely bathroom area with His & Hers sink areas, custom hickory cabinets, a two-person whirlpool tub, stall shower, and again those fabulous views. There’s another large (23X15’6”) bedroom upstairs, as well. The current owner had plans for an on-suite guest bath - the space is there and the plumbing is easy to access.
The full basement is waiting for someone’s finishing touches. With good ceiling height and lots of square footage, it could easily be finished to make an exercise room, play room, workshop, etc. It is presently heated by a propane stove. Let’s not overlook a 6-person sauna ready to ease those aching muscles after a long day on the trail, whether on a mountain bike, cross country skis or a horse! And to complete the spa experience, there’s a 6-man hot tub with waterfall and music just outside.
The stable is conveniently located just across the driveway with four stalls, a feed room, heated tack room, plenty of hay storage in the loft and of course, water and electricity. There’s easy turn out from the barn to spectacular pastures with shelter and water available at both ends, so dividing them for rotation is easy - keeping the pastures fresh and green all season long. A 100 X 150 outdoor arena with awesome clay/sand footing is situated so you can enjoy the views while you ride. If you’re feeling more adventurous there are plenty of trails that can be accessed right from the property - miles of dirt roads and snow mobile trails.
The first lot is 12 acres, mostly in pasture, with the home, barn and riding arena. The second lot of record is 11.9 acres, with a pretty field of its own, it shares in the mountain views, and there’s a septic design and permit already on file. The property has been divided to afford both parcels the benefit of current use. This second lot provides the opportunity for a second home or horse property, a great opportunity to create a family compound, an investment in your future or to maintain your privacy.
Located in West Unity, a quiet, mountain/farm community that provides a peaceful retreat, it is just 10 min. to Claremont for restaurants and shopping, 15 min to Vermont and I-91, 30 min. to Sunapee or Ascutney VT for skiing, and under an hour to the Hanover area and Dartmouth Region. Enjoy the Visual Tour® and then make an appointment to see this gem in person.
