74 Piscataqua Rd Dover, NH 03820

BIG SKY FARM. This extraordinary estate sits on landscape of unparalleled beauty. Five adjoining parcels totaling over 85 unencumbered acres and nearly a mile of saltwater frontage with Great Bay and Atlantic Ocean. Only 1 hour drive from Boston and minutes to UNH, Portsmouth and Pease Int’l Airport. A place of retreat, the circa 1940 architecturally significant 4,700 SF home is prominently sited on the hilltop looking out 270-degrees over fertile meadows, diverse forests and the surrounding waterfront, across miles to the vast horizon beyond. The open blue skys, inspiring sunrises and the full moon rise are spectacular. Bounded by over 2,000’ of road frontage and 3,500’ along the adjoining farm under conservation restriction, the setting lends itself to as much privacy and seclusion as desired. The house presents a stylish, traditional aesthetic, hallmarks of which include brick, fieldstone and shingle siding; warm, wood-paneled rooms; reclaimed 300+ year old wide pine floors; classical motifs; wrought and beam architectural details; 5 fireplaces; lodge; solarium; and large windows that frame inspiring vistas of the country landscape - all those things that say “home” to the country and suburban gentleman and gentlewoman. Additional features include indoor spa and outdoor gunite pools, multiple outbuildings, 6 fenced paddocks, extensive hardscapes and a stonewall enclosed summer garden shaded by historic hardwoods. Approximately 33 acres in Madbury and 51 acres in Dover are classified under the NH Currrent Use program, saving tens of thousands of dollars annually on property taxes. Enjoyed by the current owners for over 60 years, and once used as their breeding farm for championship race horses, Big Sky Farm is now available for the discerning buyer looking to find an uncompromising opportunity to create a private compound, multiple estate parcels, equestrian facility or working farm. Property portfolio available upon request to financially qualified buyers.
