A cleared, nearly level homesite with a direct view corridor toward Welch and Dickey-just minutes from Waterville Valley. Lot 1 at 1072 New Hampshire Route 49 offers 1.62 acres, approximately 70,413 square feet, in one of Thornton’s most desirable White Mountains locations. Unlike many mountain lots, the land is open, highly usable and easy to envision, providing an exceptional starting point for a custom home, vacation retreat or investment property. The homesite is oriented north toward the distinctive ledges of Welch and Dickey Mountains, creating a memorable focal point for the future residence and its primary living spaces. With the clearing already completed and predominantly level terrain, buyers can focus on designing a home around the setting rather than first trying to uncover the site’s potential. Much of the preliminary work is already in place. The property has been surveyed, a driveway permit has been secured, perc testing has been completed and utilities are available at the street. The subdivision has received Town approval subject to completion of a compliant, site-specific septic design based on the buyer’s proposed home. There is no required house plan, allowing buyers to bring their own builder and vision. This offering is for the land only. For buyers seeking a more complete path forward, a separate mountain-modern build package is also available, along with potential build guidance and project facilitation. Located along the direct Route 49 corridor into Waterville Valley and close to hiking, skiing, snowmobiling, golf, Owl’s Nest Resort, the Mad River and Plymouth, Lot 1 combines mountain views, usable land and meaningful upfront progress in one outstanding opportunity.

White Mountain National Forest on two sides. Waterville Valley minutes away. A homesite like this is difficult to recreate. Lot 2 at 303 Sandwich Notch Road offers 1.61 acres-approximately 70,004 square feet-in one of Thornton’s most desirable recreational corridors. White Mountain National Forest land lies directly across the road and also abuts the uphill side of the property, including approximately 402 feet along the rear boundary. The result is a substantial public-land buffer, wooded surroundings and unusual separation from privately owned residential land across the road and behind the homesite.

Its topography creates an excellent opportunity for a thoughtfully designed mountain home, walkout-style residence or private retreat positioned to enjoy the setting and mountain views. Much of the preliminary work is already complete. The property has been surveyed, a driveway permit is in place, perc testing has been performed and utilities are available at the street. The subdivision has received Town approval subject to completion of a compliant, site-specific septic design based upon the buyer’s proposed home. With no predetermined house plan, buyers have the flexibility to create a primary residence, vacation home or White Mountains getaway around their own vision.

Beautiful acre in Waterville Estates, with a lovely creek winding down through the property and potential mountain views in wintertime after the leaves fall. There is a drainage culvert already in place at the road frontage, and this would make an obvious spot for a driveway. However the maintained portion of the road stops about 100 feet short of the culvert and would need to be improved. This opportunity is therefore priced accordingly. The ground itself hasn't been perc tested but appears high and dry, with a medium density of hardwoods dotting the hillside. This property is a member of Waterville Estates, with full access to the Community Center, grille pub, Campton Mountain Ski Area, and other amenities. Association dues are also deeply discounted ($120 per year) until a home is built. The location is in the very heart of ski country: Just 19 minutes to Waterville Valley, 25 minutes to Loon, not to mention the hundreds of hikes and outdoor recreational opportunities in the White Mountains.
