Mt. Washingtons Rückzugsort

Thirty miles of open valley below you, and at the far end, snow-capped Mount Washington. This custom single-level home sits on a private mountain top in Dalton at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, and that view follows you into almost every room. Walk in, and the great room pulls you straight to the glass. Wide-plank wood floors run through more than 6,000 square feet without a single stair. Morning sun pours into the kitchen while the valley below is still in shadow; whoever is cooking gets the best seat in the house. At sunset the last light turns Washington amber, and you watch it happen from your own sofa. Even on a gray day, the weather moving across the valley is worth pulling up a chair for. The plan was designed in 2004 for this ridge, not adapted to it, and you feel that in the proportions of every room. There are three bedrooms and three and a half baths, with a private bath for every bedroom. The primary suite sits apart from the rest of the house, and the mountains are the first thing you see each morning. Open the home up for a full weekend of family and friends, or close it down for two. The private acreage does what mountain land should. No neighboring rooflines, no traffic, just a tree line and sky. It feels like a private world, even though town is never far. The seasons arrive in order outside your windows: green in spring, long summer evenings with light past nine, white mountain foliage in fall, then the hard blue-and-white winter days when the peaks look close enough to touch. The practical side is handled too. Solar panels are already in place to trim energy costs through the long, bright winters. FidiumFiber delivers up to 2 Gbps, so working full time from the top of a mountain is as easy as working from the city. The home has been well maintained, which means you arrive for the view, not a project list. Some homes have a view. This one was built around it. Schedule your private tour and see it for yourself.
