About This Home

This beautifully maintained 2018 custom-built 2-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home sits on over 2 private acres in one of the most exclusive and desirable areas of Gorham, NH. Offering the perfect blend of modern comfort and mountain living, it features an open, light-filled layout with high-quality finishes throughout and efficient radiant floor heating on the entire main level. The single-level design ensures easy, low maintenance living while delivering a spacious and inviting feel. Designed with versatility in mind, this well-built home offers outstanding expansion potential. The flexible layout can easily be transformed into a 3- or 4-bedroom home with a great room and additional bath, or adapted for a private in-law suite featuring a bedroom, office space, full bath, and open living area. Beyond the main house, you’ll find an unfinished 364 sq ft space above the garage ready for a full suite, plus a massive 1,358 sq ft walkout basement already plumbed for a full bathroom. Together, these areas create incredible opportunities to add living space, a home gym, guest quarters, or a family room—all while capturing sweeping mountain views. When fully finished, the home can reach nearly 3,200 square feet. Located in the heart of the White Mountains, this property puts world-class recreation at your doorstep. Enjoy easy access to hiking trails, skiing, snowmobiling, ATV routes, and multiple 4,000-foot mountain peaks. Whether you're seeking a year-round home or a peaceful mountain retreat, this modern ranch delivers comfort, privacy, and endless adventure in one of the best locations in the White Mountains. A must-see property that perfectly combines quality, flexibility, and location.
