Two-Story Open-Concept Living on a Private Hilltop Estate

One sleeping area is located on the lower level, and a second open-concept bedroom loft occupies the upper level, overlooking the main living space. This design creates a spacious, airy feel that is ideal for individuals or couples who value flow, light, and creative flexibility.

Residents share in the setting of a true hilltop sanctuary, featuring mature gardens, rolling land, distant sunset views, and a sense of retreat that is seldom found in rental living. Despite its seclusion, the property is conveniently located approximately 30 minutes from Portsmouth and 80 minutes from Boston.
