Heritage Heights New Construction: Home for Sale in Windham NH

Heritage Hill, Windham NH, New Hampshire: new construction fine home with mountain views. Nestled atop a gentle hillside in the Woods of Windham, the architectural distinction of the West has arrived to New Hampshire luxury real estate: “The Colorado” is an over 6,800 sqft mansion boasting a stunning stone and stucco exterior.

This distinctive colonial home with grand proportions presides over 2.6 acres of wooded land. The lot is situated at the highest elevation of Heritage Heights in Windham, and offers sweeping views of the mountains in the distance. It is the last remaining parcel that allows the home to be placed with a perfect angle on this inspiring vista.

A long tree-lined driveway highlights the approach to a stone walled motor court. The carport can accomodate two vehicles and is unique to this home; no other property in the neighborhood offers this awe-inspiring approach. Arriving visitors will be sheltered by the terrace above. The wrap-around porch with round pillars further enhances the architectural substance of this elegant home.

The owners of this fine home will enjoy an open floor plan that is appointed with every luxury and amenity.

Over one third of the first floor is taken up by the formal dining room, pantry, wet bar, kitchen and eating area with a curved wall of glass towards the outside. In the dining room detailed millwork and a tray ceiling gives the space architectural distinction. Left of the foyer a study / library room offers peace and solitude for quiet reading or music. Across the entry past the curving staircase the formal living room with cofferd ceiling awaits hours of lively conversations. The windows on the left and the bow window in the rear bring in shimmering views of distant mountains.

A double-sided fireplace joins the living room and the 24×20 family room area in the center of the first floor living space. A two-story wall of glass in the family room provides sweeping views of the outdoors. Extensive stonework make the fireplace and the connecting arched doorway another focal point. The family room is open towards the kitchen area. The curved main staircase with rounded wrought iron railing anchors this room perfectly.

The second staircase next to the loundry area leads to the guest bedroom suite and playroom upstairs to the left and a balcony overlooking the 2-story family room below on the right. All bedrooms have a full bath and walk-in closets. In addition, each of the children’s bedrooms have a separate study and access to a terrace.

The owners enter the front to back master bedroom suite through a sitting area. A double sided fireplace connects the sitting area and the bedroom with tray ceilings. The lushly appointed master bath with a two person glass-enclosed shower can be accessed from the dressing room and the bedroom as well. A large stained glass window assures privacy. Similarly to the living room below, the master bedroom too is uptimally oriented to bring in the view of glorious sunsets through the windows on the left and the bow window in the rear. The master bedroom has exclusive use of a wrap-around terrace for those romantic evenings.

Generous builder’s allowances for kitchen, flooring and other upgrades give room for the buyer’s creativity to express their vision. Masterful woodwork and trim animate this house with museum quality detail that will provide lifelong enjoyment and the admiration of all.

Cape Style Detached Condo in Manchester NH Derryfield Estates: new construction homes for sale near Lake Massabesic, Golf Course

Derryfield Estates, Manchester, New Hampshire: Exclusive 6-lot subdivision of detached cape style condos is equally near to the Golf Course and Lake Massabesic. Occupancy is open to all, there is NO age restriction, this is not a 55 and over community.

A stylish L-shaped configuration of a contemporary cape with a 2 car attached garage and farmers porch creates unique curb appeal. The charm of a new layout and traditional architecture is enhanced by a farmers porch that runs almost the full width of this house of about 32 feet. The oversized 24×24 attached garage brings the total street side frontage to an impressive 56 feet.

The garage is cleverly offset relative to the main house, allowing for an extra deep 5′6″ farmers porch (most are only 4 feet) which transforms the showy but typically useless space into one where furniture can be placed. Imagine a quiet conversation while enjoying the sunset over the wide expanse of green space between the two sides of this cozy community. Three large windows and the main entry door connect the farmers porch to the rest of the house and provide ample light into the living room and dining room.

As you enter this home through the front door off the farmer’s porch, you will be greeted by the welcoming openness of the unique floor plan. The living room, the adjoining dining room and the kitchen behind allow the visitor’s eyes to explore this open space unobstructed by walls. While the functional separation caters to a very liveable arrangement of furniture and function, this open flow of space will make the house feel even larger than it is (footprint occupies 56×40 feet, 64×44 for the larger model B). Finally a home big enough to invite all your friends at the same time!

The kitchen design is very efficient and functional at the same time. A large 5×3 center island connects the sink, dishwasher and range on one side to the fridge and additional counter space on the other, providing a momentary stop of food preparation as it progresses from storage to cooking.

The 1st floor laundry is an extension of the kitchen space and allows the owner to keep an eye on the laundry’s progress while engaging in other activities in the kitchen. No running up and down the stairs with hampers here, everything happens on the same floor with maximum efficiency.

The first floor full bath isolates the laundry area from the 16×13 bedroom on this level (20×14 in the larger model). The bedroom has direct access to this bath, hence it is suitable to be used as the master bedroom in this home. The rear elevation drawing reveals a deck running the full length of the house in the back behind this bedroom. For more outdoor space and large barbecue parties there is also room for a 23×20 deck extension behind the garage.

Two additional bedrooms (the larger one is 18×13) with another full bath on the second floor create the option of setting up the master bedroom upstairs. The bigger bedroom (22×14 in model B) has a large 10×4 bump-out nook for a reading corner or powder room. Overlooking the deck below two 60″x36″ windows create a wall of glass and make this bedroom light and cheery.

Derryfield Estates is located among the many recreational attractions that the great city of Manchester and neighboring towns offer. Derryfield Country Club is only 0.5 miles away and Stevens Pond (with great fishing) and the ballpark there are an even shorter walk. In the other direction, Lake Massabesic is only about 0.6 miles. The park, surrounding trails and yacht club create endless possibilities for fun in the summer, gorgeous views of foliage in the fall and sport activities during the winter. Oh, and did I mention the smell of spring around here? Downtown Manchester is also a well known center for all cultural and culinary venues of a vibrant city.

When you live at Derryfield Estates in Manchester NH, you will enjoy the benefits of quality construction, great location and a unique combination of the best life styles that a lively city and scenic countryside can provide. Extremely low condo fees make living here even more affordable.
