Gilmanton, New Hampshire

Frisky Hill offers a spectacular setting - 113+/- largely conserved acres with nearly 360-degree views. A stone wall-lined drive meanders through a charming compound of historic buildings, gardens and fields. The main house, originally built in 1665 in Massachusetts, features massive hand-hewn oak beams, wide plank floors, wood paneling, and five fireplaces. The house has all the historic charm of a gracious early colonial home with the best modern systems including whole house A/C, radiant floor heat, whole house generator, and luxury appliances. This assemblage was carefully chosen, dismantled, brought to the property in 2006, situated to take full advantage of the views, and meticulously restored. This extraordinary undertaking was executed by a team of master craftsmen including renowned preservationist Henry Page. Additional period structures include a grand post & beam barn (featured on the cover of Pottery Barn), Gilmanton's original one-room schoolhouse, a water tower, and a traditional corn crib. Except for 11.25 acres surrounding the home, the property is permanently protected by a conservation easement. An unparalleled offering in the NH's Lakes Region.
