Brook Mountain
White Mountains Luxury Retreat
Lyman, New Hampshire

When Robert Frost, residing in a small town in New Hampshire's White Mountains, composed his poem, The Road Not Taken, surely he referred to the "less traveled" gravel road that winds through maple & evergreen forests leading to this White Mountains Luxury Retreat—known as Brook Mountain.

"A mile from any neighbor," boasted Henry David Thoreau, referring to the location of his cabin along Walden Pond—a description equally applicable to the distance of neighbors to this Shingle Style mountain residence. 

That's where the comparison ends, however. Hardly a rough-hewn cabin, this 5700 square foot Arts & Crafts residence on three levels features classic lines with a modern flair, offering superlative finishes & every amenity to exude an atmosphere of Refined Rusticity throughout: Multiple Gathering Rooms with antique fireplaces & exposed beams; a classic Cooking Kitchen with Carrera marble countertops, along with AGA, Viking & Sub-Zero appliances; a formal DR; a Library Living Room, a two-Story Folk Art Studio, 4 sumptuous Ensuites; a Botanical Conservatory; and a White Mountains vernacular Post&Beam Wrap-Around Porch and Carriage House—all featuring panoramic mountain views.

Set on 22 extremely private acres with forested trails, wild flower fields and cascading brooks, Brook Mountain is surrounded by very large acreage forested parcels, thereby ensuring its aura of unsurpassed privacy. A world onto itself, Brook Mountain is located in the mountain town of Lyman, a hamlet that claims more moose, deer, and bears than the 500 people who reside there.

The owners—one a historical restorationist and MasterBuilder, the other a novelist—are fond of quoting New England's most famed writers when speaking of their beloved restoration project, Brook Mountain:

"It's all about the Lifestyle here. Lifestyle properties draw people from around the country searching for privacy and a beautiful setting from which to enjoy the natural world—and society from afar." 

In the past, notables such an heiress, (who started a renowned music camp for girls), entrepreneurs from around the world, and others live among us in privacy - living the lives they imagined for themselves—to paraphrase Thoreau.

"Brook Mountain offers the best of both worlds," explains the owners. "Like Thoreau's cabin at Walden, Brook Mountain offers Solitude, yet is located only 10 miles away from the area's award-winning culinary, retail, & sporting centers, as well as the interstates."

Come live the life you imagine at Brook Mountain!
