A rare offering in the historic town of Orford, this custom 2025 residence brings modern design and true turnkey living to a landscape defined by century-old homes. Here you'll find the charm of a classic New England town paired with the ease and quality of brand-new construction. The home makes a striking first impression, with black board and batten and a warm entry set against the surrounding woods. Inside, the light-filled living space rises to vaulted ceilings, grounded by wide-plank antiqued white pine floors that bring warmth and character throughout. Three bedrooms and two beautifully finished bathrooms offer flexible space to live, work, and host. A wraparound deck extends the living space outdoors with peaceful mountain views. Every system is new: a 3-bedroom mound septic system with plan available, drilled well, electric heat, and metal roof. Set on 2.2 private acres in a town without traditional zoning, the property offers plenty of flexibility. A 400-amp service is already in place for an EV charger, workshop, or potential future building on the lower field. The open, sunlit lot and metal roof also make solar a natural addition, with covered storage tucked beneath the deck and young landscaping that will continue to mature. Just 42 minutes from Dartmouth, DHMC, and Hanover, with an Appalachian Trailhead only five minutes away, the location works just as well for a full-time home, weekend escape, or short-term rental. For a buyer who wants it truly ready to go, the seller will consider selling the home furnished and equipped for an additional fee, which can be worked into an offer. A home like this rarely comes along in Orford. Come see it for yourself!
