Road has large properties and low-density, so the area is very quiet and private. Future development will be limited. About 3 miles from town, 10 minutes from groceries, hospital and I-91. Spectacular hiking just a few minutes away.
30 minutes from several larger cities (Hanover, Littleton, Plymouth) with major shopping. Several major ski areas 45-60 minutes away.
