- Description: This rustic cottage is a true outdoor lover's paradise. Originally discovered for its incredible hunting, the property borders hundreds of acres of unposted land ideal for those seeking privacy and big game. Over the years, deer, moose, bear, bobcat, and even a mountain lion have all wandered across the land along with countless smaller wildlife. For anglers, the nearby lakes offer excellent fishing. Lake Tarleton in particular is a hidden gem and there's a convenient boat ramp in Orford with access to the Connecticut River. From the cottage, simply walk up the road to enjoy scenic hikes in every season. For the more adventurous, the Appalachian Trail is easily reached via Quinttown Road, crossing the summit of Mount Cube. In the winter, snowshoe straight from your front door or hop on a snowmobile and connect to miles of groomed trails. The property includes a sturdy, well-built 30' x 14' barn, perfect for storing ATVs, snowmobiles, tools, or gear for every season. The cottage itself offers the rare blend of an off-grid feel with the comfort of electricity. It's located at the last electric pole on the road, offering a true sense of seclusion. After years of living with a dry cabin, an artesian well was professionally installed, providing fresh, reliable water. While this retreat feels worlds away from it all, it's just 6 miles to town for groceries, restaurants, hardware supplies, and easy highway access. This property delivers the best of New Hampshire's wild beauty.
