Rising up the gently sloping base of Mount Israel, this magnificent parcel fans out from the road below and stretches into a serene forest primarily of beeches, maples, oaks and hemlocks. These 109.5 acres directly border the White Mountain National Forest to the north! The recent major addition of a 2,400' gravel driveway passes by multiple potential building sites and ends 3/4 of the way up the property at a new 10-acre clearing. Opening up the forest here has unlocked an impressive, sweeping southern vista featuring the ancient volcanic Ossipee Mountains, Diamond Ledge in the foreground, and a majestic valley taking center stage. Astounding views reach as far as 30 miles southeast to distant, faded blue hills. Lakes Winnipesaukee and Squam can be seen from this property's highest point, perfect for camping or a picnic! A trickling stream connects two small ponds just into the woods to the west with deer, moose, and bears often passing through for a drink. From here, sounds of the wind and birds drift across the landscape with not much else to be heard. Solar panels, livestock, gardens, and fruit trees could all thrive here in the future; wild berries already flourish during the summer and fall! Mere minutes away in Center Sandwich, the recently-opened Foothills Cafe and legendary Corner House are must-visit destinations for food, community, and music with the famous Sandwich Fairgrounds just down the road. Bring your dreams to 302 Mt. Israel Road and make them come true!
