About this home
SANBORNTON: This 4-bedroom, 3 bath, 2700+ sf home is surrounded by over 200 acres of protected Forestry land and located just 4 minutes from I93! You will love how the house sits serenely atop a small hill, accessed via a short town-maintained dirt road. This beautiful home was taken down to the studs and completely rebuilt in 2017, with the addition of a brand-new 2nd story, breezy mudroom, and oversized attch'd garage. In addition to the completely "new house" are all the mechanical systems, including new boiler & heating system, new well pump & wiring, completely new septic system and leachfield, new roof, windows and siding. Enter through a wonderfully practical and understated mudroom, which opens up to the incredible gourmet kitchen with large island and 1st floor laundry; Dining Room features lighted tray ceiling, and a giant Living/Family Room with fireplace; Also on the main level, two bedrooms and a bath, plus the master suite--which boasts of his & hers closets, double-sink vanity, and double-shower in the custom-tiled shower room. Two terrific decks expand the already-generous living space to the outside. While the house is now functionally brand new, the landscape charmingly reflects decades of family life. But new is the prevailing theme: Live comfortably on just the main level, or enjoy the significant additional space in the fully finished upstairs, including a 4th BR option and large bonus room.
