Some properties are defined by their boundaries. Others are defined by what lies beyond them. This extraordinary 117.12 acre North Sandwich property offers both a place of your own and a connection to a much larger protected landscape. Approximately 19 acres lie outside the conservation easement, offering potential for a thoughtfully sited private residence, subject to applicable approvals. The remaining acreage is permanently conserved, preserving the forest, wildlife habitat, water resources and quiet character of the land. Arrive by an existing gravel drive and parking area, then leave the road behind. Approximately six kilometers of woodland trails wind through the property and have previously been groomed for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. The current owners took great pleasure in sharing these trails with family and friends and the vibrant outdoor community! Year-round Mill Brook flows through the land, crossed by an existing bridge. From an elevated knoll, a view toward Mt. Whiteface filters through the pines and could potentially be enhanced with selective cutting. Build a secluded North Sandwich retreat, or embrace the simplicity of the land much as it is. Directly beyond the property are more than 400 acres owned by the Lakes Region Conservation Trust. Beyond those lands are over 17,000 acres of White Mountain National Forest and the Sandwich Range Wilderness. Ferncroft, a hikers' mecca with its secret hiking trails, is a five minute car ride, or a quick bicycle trip. With 415 feet of frontage on a quiet, paved public road, this is an uncommon opportunity to own substantial acreage in a place where conservation is what makes the landscape so enduringly special. Here you can create a private country residence or simply preserve a place from which to walk, ski, explore and experience the changing seasons. Either way, this is an opportunity to own a meaningful piece of the North Sandwich landscape and become its next steward.
