Rustic industrial contemporary at one with the forest! Six acres surrounded by the White Mountain National Forest, the Ware Preserve and set above the East Branch River. The expertly detailed & nuanced architecture is a study in wood, slate, steel & glass that opens to the outdoors with an abundance of large windows that frame the forest. The house design captures the spirit of the mountain landscape. The living & dining rooms are highlighted by the high-volume ceiling & soaring slate & steel hearth wall. Beautiful outdoor living spaces with a sophisticated glass sunroom opening to a large deck leading to one of 2 gardens. The 1st floor primary bedroom offers 2 walk-in closets, bleached pine walls and a beautiful bath. The stairway floats up to a glass bridge into the large loft. Once used as a bedroom with full bath, it's presently an office, workout area and family room. On the main level, there is a 2nd bedroom, laundry & gear room/workshop to store your outdoor gear or exercise on the treadmill and a garage. Abutting the National Forest and the Ware Preserve, you can enjoy the Maple Villa Ski Glades managed by theGranite Back Country Alliance or hike to the top of Bartlett Mountain and over to Kearsarge. Inspired by the forest the home is private & quiet yet only 4.5 miles from the heart of downtown North Conway. Toss your keys down, kick off your shoes and relax - you're home!
