Property Description

The legend of 260 Thistle Street is born from the living forest and the wilderness of Upton, Maine. This exceptional estate does not merely sit in nature, it weaves itself into the very fabric of the landscape. Nestled in the shadow of the rugged mountains near Grafton Notch State Park, the property remains enveloped by nature's quiet majesty. Just minutes away, the pristine waters of Lake Umbagog catch the morning mist, while the dramatic cliffs of Dixville Notch loom a mere 28 minutes to the north. Celebrated as one of the most vibrant, untouched wildlife habitats in New England, the region invites moose, deer, and soaring birds of prey as regular visitors to the sprawling yard. On a clear evening, you can gaze at the sky from the front farmer's porch or the back deck to see a million stars lighting up the night. For those who hear the call of the wild, the property offers immediate entry into a legendary playground: winter snowmobile tracks and summer ATV trails connect directly from the backyard into the vast trail networks of Maine and New Hampshire, located just two minutes down the road. An architectural masterpiece stepping onto the property echoes of the past, giving you the feeling of stepping back into an era of master craftsmanship. The crowning jewel of the exterior is the classic New England barn, seamlessly attached to the main residence. It reveals an unexpected oasis of historic charm and modern potential. Within the main home, luxury life unfolds across grand, spacious anchors. A highlight is the extra-large, multiple-chef, user-friendly kitchen. It comes expertly equipped with an antique wood cook stove alongside modern appliances. For added convenience, an enclosed laundry area for the washer and dryer sits just off the kitchen. Barn will house all your ATV's snow machines, bikes and toys. Tons of space.
