We absolutely love this area. There are incredible views throughout the house, and it's located on a private dead end road in Sugar Hill, NH, (town next to Franconia) right in the white mountains. During this time of year, the house is in the center of great outdoors activities - Franconia Notch State Park, Cannon Mt, hiking trails, and Echo Lake are all nearby....and great restaurants. Loon is about 30 min away and Bretton Woods is about 35 min away as well.
We just re-designed the house and made some upgrades as of Nov 28, 2021! The house has two floors - the downstairs has an open kitchen/living room set up as the main sitting area. There is a wall of 10 windows opening out to the mountain view and the deck. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, coffee maker, all appliances, all silverware and glassware and plates and cooking items. On the main floor there is also a den with a TV with satellite access, internet, a full bathroom and a mudroom and washer/dryer. Upstairs there are three bedrooms with new queen mattresses, new bed spreads, new lamps and chairs and another full bathroom.
The house is great for people who want to go outside all day for activities and then come back to a quiet setting with a great view to unwind, have a glass of wine or beer and make dinner. Or you could simply relax and stare at the view all day.
The main reasons we love this area are: there are hiking trails throughout and around Franconia Notch State park, great access to skiing, and also local off the beaten path, walking trails. Cannon Mt is a short 15 min drive away, Bretton Woods and the Mt. Washington Lodge are only about 30-35 min away for all kinds of adventures. In terms of nearby restaurants there are great options for soup and sandwiches in Franconia, Polly's Pancakes is a local favorite which has been completely re-done, The Horse and Hound has re-opened their doors for a really nice dinner, The Iron Furnace is a local brewery in Franconia, Schilling, has expanded in Littleton for great pizza, salads and great brews with a full tasting taproom. There are many other great options for food, drink and shopping for antiques. For clothes shopping, Garnet Hill offers great discounts on clothing right in Franconia. We got married in Sugar Hill and have loved the area for years and years. We hope you stay. - John
