Looking to unplug and get away from it all? Here's your chance! There aren't many opportunities like this one left - close enough to Boston but in the middle of no where, these two seasonal cottages on 14.8 acres offer walking trails that allow access to the Wapack trail and there is a lovely pond that has been swimmable in the past - "water so clear you could see a quarter on the bottom". Surrounded by land owned by the New England Forestry Foundation, this could make for a perfect summer vacation compound - two separate buildings, the stone house with one bedroom, a bath, a loft, a floor to ceiling stone fireplace, a woodstove in the kitchen and a newer roof. The ranch has one bath and four bedrooms, two of which have separate access and can be locked, as well as a large screened porch that looks down over the pond. It also has a full basement with an old oil burning furnace (it is not currently operational), but all the duct work is in place and accessible. There is also a one car detached garage by the road. While they are rustic and will require work, they are equipped with updated electricity, phone lines, and running water, and there is even a security system. Located at the end of a seasonal road (which could potentially be accessed in the winter by snowmobile), this is a rare chance to escape and create a peaceful, idyllic retreat, or perhaps an Airbnb opportunity? If the idea of total peace and quiet that is not too far off the beaten path is what you seek, then roll up your sleeves and make it happen! Sharon is a lovely small town in the best kept secret in NH - The Monadnock Region - with easy access to the Massachusetts border and only an hour and half to Boston.
