This remarkable four-bedroom home, sitting on a hill graced by white birch and pines and overlooking the length of Nubanusit Lake, is stunning both inside and out. Constructed by well-known builder Mark Schaal in 2007, this post-and-beam home provides both quality and quantity. Largely open concept, there are gleaming wood floors and plenty of natural light throughout. The kitchen (with gorgeous cabinetry and granite counter tops), dining area, front hall, and second floor landing are all tied together by the stone fireplace in the great room, which has soaring cathedral ceiling and windows from floor to peak. The lower level is ready to finish, with a wood stove in place. A deck and spacious screened porch provide plenty of opportunities to relish the views of the Lake and surrounding mountains, and would be perfect for entertaining. The property features stone walls and a small eighteenth-century barn (moved from its original location) and is backed by hundreds of acres of protected forest, so privacy is no issue. Because it is located across the just road from the lake, taxes are much lower for this property compared to houses on the water side of the road, but it still has a very close right-of-way for easy water access. Virtually all the benefits of waterfront living, but at a much nicer price!

Words nor photos can do this property justice, you just need to come and see it! It began in 1790, and has done nothing but improve ever since! Built for living with an absolutely stunning setting on just under 20 acres, this is the place your friends and family will flock to, and will want to hold their weddings (there have been several here already!) Gorgeous antique features are accented by modern amenities for comfort, and include SEVEN fireplaces, some wood burning, some with wood stoves, raised panel walls, beautiful wood floors, and exposed beams and masonry are just some of the aesthetically pleasing things to behold. Two first floor bedrooms along with a 3/4 bath and laundry allow for easy living, with two additional bedrooms on the second floor and the most amazing finished apartment in the walk out, daylight lower level. Mature landscaping and a path through the wild flower garden leads to a beautiful view up on the hill. Fields and forests abound, and all the material used to build the home came right from the site. Every detail has been attended to, the mudroom and wood shed, the well laid out eat in kitchen, the two three season porches (one of which stays warm enough to use in the winter when the wood stove is running), the dry sauna, it's all here. There is extensive, well documented history on the property with detailed information on all of it's features. Not far from charming Hancock village, this iconic property is available for the first time in decades!
