An extraordinary 173-acre retreat behind gated access, with nearly a mile of Saco River frontage and miles of private trails. At the center is a 6,000-square-foot red cedar lodge built to entertain, with radiant floor heat throughout for a warm, comfortable environment year-round. Highlights include a professional-grade kitchen, a two-story family room with a massive fireplace, five bedrooms, four full baths and two half baths, a second-floor loft with its own fireplace, a large 3-car garage, and a separate toy garage around back with UTV included. Expansive decking, a screened porch, and sweeping views complete the picture. The home comes fully furnished and move-in ready. Few properties offer this combination of privacy, recreation, and potential - as a private estate, family compound, corporate retreat, wedding venue, Airbnb destination, or hunting and fishing lodge. The expansive acreage may also allow for future development, subdivision, or additional residences, subject to local approvals. Outdoors, enjoy trails for horseback riding, ATVs, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing, along with upland bird and deer hunting. Fish, swim, and kayak right from your own river frontage. Rinse off after a day on the water at the outdoor shower. Additional amenities include a separate insulated, open-concept outbuilding ideal for a studio, a powered campsite, wood and conventional furnaces, and a backup generator. Minutes from Fryeburg Fair, North Conway, skiing, and shopping - The Saco Forest Lodge is a legacy property and a blank canvas for your next great adventure.
