Close your eyes and picture it... Nearly five acres of tall, whispering pines. Sunlight streaming through the canopy. The scent of mountain air after a summer rain. The quiet stillness that only the White Mountains can offer -- broken only by birdsong and the gentle breeze moving through the trees. Welcome to 4.74 acres of possibility. Tucked off Porter Mountain Road, this extraordinary parcel offers the privacy and serenity you crave -- yet you're just 15 minutes from the heart of town. It feels worlds away from the noise and pace of everyday life, while still keeping everything you need within easy reach.
