241.58+/-Acres - A legacy property, paradise called Hidden Pastures. Fondly named by a previous famed owner, his personal recreational retreat during a bygone era. Open fields, rolling hills, forested land with 3 sides of property abutting hundreds of acres of conservation land.

Fondly named by a previous famed owner, his personal recreational retreat during a bygone era. Open fields, rolling hills, forested land with 3 sides of property abutting hundreds of acres of conservation land. This is one of the classics remaining from early 1900’s when some of the country's wealthiest built their White Mountain summer cottages in Bethlehem and surrounding communities. Imagine having packed up your steam trunks, boarded train-arriving for summer to such a stunning setting of peace and solitude. In a period when time stood still, and people knew to appreciate the small things in life. Set far off the road it affords privacy, the iron gate entrance is lined with mature maples leading to anticipated arrival of home with open fields beyond and views reaching 180 degrees, sweeping North to South. The great room is warm, large and lodge-like with multiple conversation areas, enormous stone and granite fireplace, hardwood floors and banks of windows looking to the expansive veranda that will only leave your imagination wondering what stories have been told and what times been had here while longing to have yours continue on! There are five bedrooms, two "other" rooms, butler's pantry, dining room, kitchen, den, covered and screen porch. Barn/garage has guest or caretaker quarters. Newer septic, furnace, radiators, retaining wall, kitchen, generator, well, security system. Current use land status.
