Luxury real estate on Heritage Hill, Windham New Hampshire:

Birds like to swoop down as the sparkling pool attracts them. When you don’t have wings, it’s harder to decide which way to approach this home.

By Mr. Janos, real estate agent, Windham NH, 603-438-9134.

Will you stroll up the driveway, open the wrought iron gate and settle down at the poolside on a sunny day? Should you wait until dusk when the granite lanterns light up and walk up to the front door so you can admire the gleaming beveled glass? Or, would you just wiz up in your sports car and vanish in the huge three-car garage?

Luxury home on Heritage Hill  estate lot

If you wind your way following the brick path to the front door, the Portico will shelter you even on a rainy, stormy day.  Stately double columns support the balcony and the glimmer of a wrought iron chandelier and lanterns makes this approach even more inviting.

Upon entering you will be greeted by the immense two-story foyer with a turned staircase. The handcrafted railing and curved landing upstairs overlook the Palladian window flanked by two recesses for artwork.

… can you hear the sound of a piano?

As you walk through the arched doorway towards the two-story family room, a wall of glass reveals itself. Two sliders with huge windows on top bring in the outdoors and provide unobstructed views of the mahogany deck, the in-ground pool and a glimpse of the gorgeous home next door. Gleaming hardwood floor and a beautifully trimmed fireplace add class to this space. Over the arched doorway a catwalk connects two wings of bedrooms upstairs.

Through a double French door you arrive to the 27x22 gourmet kitchen with dark cherry cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and a center island. The beautifully inlaid limestone tile floor is a very brittle material and has developed a few cracks over the years. The bump-out eat-in breakfast area overlooks the in-ground pool; two windows and a slider with oval transom windows pour light into the kitchen.

… can you see the guests milling, toasting you on your birthday?

The deck runs the full width of the house and connects the living room, family room and kitchen from the outside. This combination of a large deck with access from every room in the rear of the house and an L-shaped pool with a brick patio lends itself to grand entertaining and wonderful summers right at home.

For private occasions double French doors can close off the formal dining from the kitchen and the two-story foyer. Lavishly trimmed tray ceiling, shadow boxing and round-top windows make this room even more festive for the holidays.

… can you feel the warmth of the fireplace?

Four bedrooms, adjoining bathrooms, a game room and the laundry room occupy the second level. A vaulted ceiling brings light and air into the expansive master bedroom suite, with twin walk-in closets and a gas fireplace. A luxurious bathroom with his and her sides, a two-person extra deep jetted tub and a custom shower all trimmed with marble offer relaxation with seasonal mountain views.

The house sits on the crest of Heritage Hill and is privately set back from the road. The quality of upgrades offered in this home deserves your personal visit.

… imagine the life style you could lead here.
