About this property

53 Duncan is a thoughtfully designed New Hampshire home where timeless craftsmanship, a private setting, and modern comfort come together. Long range views unfold across the property and are drawn into the home through carefully placed windows, creating a strong connection to the landscape from the kitchen, living spaces, bedrooms, and outdoor areas. Inside, wide-plank wood floors, millwork, custom built-ins, and a handsome paneled fireplace surround, give the home classic New England character. The kitchen is both beautiful and functional, with extensive cabinetry, warm wood counters, a large island, professional-style appliances, and windows framing the view. Just off the kitchen, a library/sitting room with built-ins and a window seat is one of several spaces that make the home feel distinctive. From the main living spaces, step outside to the covered porch with Ipe decking, then continue to the new stone patio with separate dining and seating areas designed to enjoy the view throughout the day. Granite steps lead to the hot tub, creating another private place to unwind, take in the changing seasons, or enjoy an afternoon glass of wine as the light settles across the landscape. The detached garage adds flexibility and complements the property's overall functionality. A recently replaced heating system reflects the same level of care found throughout the home, while Tesla solar panels, four Tesla Powerwalls, a whole-house generator, a 1,000-gallon propane tank, and gigabit internet add modern efficiency, resilience, and connectivity. Private and peaceful, yet convenient to I-91, this is equally well suited as a full-time residence or a refined New Hampshire escape, off the beaten path, beautifully connected, and finished with a level of care that is evident throughout. 53 Duncan is a home best experienced in person.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
