South Peak at Loon Mountain ski Resort Lincoln New Hampshire This ski-in & ski-out slope side subdivision was started in 2006 and many truly spectacular homes have been custom built since then. These homes required a minimum of 2,500 Square feet (max 6,000 Sq, Ft.).Not only do the homes feature top notch skiing terrain, but they also offer a long stretch of direct water frontage on the Pemigewasset River.                  Phase one offered 64 homes sites and 40 condominiums and that was a complete sell out in 2006.  Fast forward to 2008; the (DES) Department of environmental service enacted a shore land protection zone for class 4 or above water ways. This meant any home build within 250 feet of a classified great body of water had to comply with some new restrictions.  Namely a maximum...

I got a unique call on a Saturday. It was an asset manager from a big national bank. Could I list  a home in a vacation area about an hour away. I sure can. After all I know it well. I place i have owned 2 different vacations homes over the years and know it well.  The asset manager thanked me for answering my phone on a Saturday and that I was willing to go to the home right away. The old go to agent for this area did not complete their tasks and they want to replace them with me if I was willing to take on the area. SO here comes the fun part. Before I left I tried to pull up a tax card, there was none. SO I checked the MLS and did find an old sale. Armed with what info the bank gave me and MLS had I set out to find this house.  I learned arriving near the Loon Mountain area that my c...

Have a look at this great family legacy home with room for multiple generations. When you own a four season recreational home the children will come to visit...and stay.   They will introduce their children to summers in the White Mountain, the beauty of fall foliage, the rapids in the river in the spring and or course what Loon Mountain is most famous for skiing in the winter. The bunk room sleeps and army, and yet the main floor master allows you to be quite comfortable when it's only you at the house... .                   OUTDOOR                                 INDOORIf you buy it they will come trust me!!

Many times in the past buyers have called about properties that they wanted to view and potentially buy. Only to find out that a financing option was not available due to the access being from a private road. We have told the sellers the solution is to get everyone on the road to sign a joint maintenance agreement. This would state who would take care of the plowing, and general up keep of the common road…and who pays for that. This document would need to be recorded and run with the property deed. The problem is not everyone is willing to do that. If you got your work done for free by one neighbor with a plow, why put yourself on the hook for this cost? The answer is if you don’t there can be a real problem getting a loan on the home you want to sell. New Hampshire has come up with a s...

South Peak at Loon Mountain Resort NHHomes pictured below built by Cargill Construction. What a great ski year we have had and real estate sales have been nothing short of phenomenal as well. I have been offering property solutions as a Realtor for 35 years. I have witnessed a lot of cycles and trends in the vacation / Resort industry.  Often when families find a destination they are comfortable with they tend to stay and move up the ladder in the size and or quality of what they buy in that resort town. South Peak on Loon.. is the ultimate destination for a custom build home in the White Mountains. These homes and home sites are accessed by private ski trails off the public terrain managed and groomed by Loon ski area. We have developed several subdivisions, commercial retail spaces; c...

When trying to acquire the best location at a ski resort a few things come in to play #1) where were the first building built as the ski area was being developed #2) being the closest to the mountain means having to have a huge budget. #3) will we have to settle for a tiny space or an old dog to get that location…RIGHT??   All three problems can be solved by one spot that was developed 35 years after all the neighbors were built. How could that be? The land developer went back to the town 35 years after laying out the master plan with one last cul-de-sac… that wasn’t on the map, and got the approval to sell a couple of lots   The result of this stroke of luck could be yours…    This duplex condo was completed only 8 years ago. Due to the timing it was finished with all the touches expec...

Progress comes at a cost New Hampshire State Park – Flume Gorge. Lincoln New Hampshire has one of the most unique attractions with in the State park system. The Flume Gorge was discovered nearly 100 years ago in a remote section of what is now the Franconia Notch State park area. It features shear Granite walls that rise over 80 feet, and was formed by the stream that runs through it to this day. The State of New Hampshire has capitalized on this incredible natural phenomenon by setting up an intricate board walk through the Gorge. They have for many years manned the park, collected an entrance fee the have provided a shuttle service, food service and modern conveniences during the warm weather months. The locals have always know that while the visitor center was closed access to the pa...

When the Market gets hot, and your not ready to settle for just any spot...it is time to consider a knock down or new build. In Lincoln New Hampshire we face a unique set of circumstances, we are situated in one of the largest geographic sized towns in the state. "BUT"...95% of the town is either White Mountain national Forest or State park land. This means we are reaching a time when knocking down an existing home or building new on a vacant lots starts to be in the mix. If you wish to be slope side there are a few existing options, most were built in the 80's and are pretty outdated. But the South Peak on Loon (home above shown) still has a few vacant sites that your custom designed Adirondack style home can be delivered. OPTION #2 the Knock Down.... This Home Listed at $179,900 sits ...

Price is the ultimate amenity… With similar floor plans near by selling for $100,000 more than this offerings’ asking price, you ask what is wrong with this condominium. The short answer is: the developer built this unit as close as is allowed to the place next door. That is the only short coming of the property. But bare in mind most Loon Mountain skiers spend a considerable amount of their time here in the winter when all the doors and windows are closed tight…and this property unlike the majority of other options comes with central A/C. Which means you need not open your windows in the heat of the summer either. Let’s move on to what is great about this place…#1 the price, it will appraise for $100,000 more than the asking price. I’ll move on in a second after you let that sink in.  ...

South Peak on Loon the Aspen of the east? I know the purist will say there is no comparison; the mountains are more than twice the height out west than on the east coast.  True. But I defy you to tell me these custom built Adirondack style homes are any less grand that the homes in the Rockies. Besides, you can’t take a two hour ride from Boston and ski Aspen any winter day…if you live in New England. When you build Slope side at South Peak on Loon Mountain, you will have a show place that every family member will want to visit all year long. When folks out west saw their real estate bubble burst, our East coast resort registered hardly a blip. South Peak is officially 10 years old it slowly developed with more than half of the ski back lots now sporting a completed home. Not just cooki...

A lot can happen in 50 years. When Loon Mountain first opened to the public on December 27, 1966, the tiny resort could boast just two lifts, 12 trails, and one toilet. “We began because we had to, not because we were ready,” said Gov. Sherman Adams, the resort’s founder. “Five hundred people showed up with their skis without being invited.” Fast-forward half a century, and Loon has become a vastly different mountain. Today, Loon is New England’s most-accessible big-mountain resort, offering 61 trails and three peaks of terrain variety for every level of skier and rider. And we can’t forget our state-of-the-art snowmaking system, which covers 99% of the mountain, or our award-winning progression of terrain parks. So visit Loon this winter and help us celebrate our 50th anniversary. Wit...
