We are pleased to bring a new feature to our blog, a chat with one of our current sellers in Owl's Nest. Our homeowners at 7 Southwest Spur Road in Thornton, NH have owned their home for many years, and now offer this easy care, gorgeous contemporary ranch with large windows and views on an acre of land. To get a sense of what is like to live in Thornton, NH, we asked a few questions: P&S: At this time, you feel the time is right to leave the beautiful Owl's Nest community. What led you to this decision? [caption id="attachment_3127" align="alignright" width="266"] The back deck[/caption] Sellers: We are moving to another state for our second home. P&S: Why is it great to live in the Owl's Nest ranch house? Sellers: We have enjoyed the easy care of the Trex decks in the front and back and the Hardy Plank siding. P&S: What did you enjoy about the area? Sellers: We have loved living at Owl's Nest Resort. We have enjoyed walking all over the picturesque property. The community is extremely friendly and from the very start, we have made wonderful friends. We've enjoyed going to The Sunset Grill and the Activity Center. We also have enjoyed skiing only ten minutes away at Waterville Valley and the magnificent Owl's Nest golf course. P&S:  Where do you shop and dine in the Thornton community and why do you enjoy those places? Sellers: We often dine at The Sunset Room at Owl's nest. There are numerous places to eat around the area as well. We often go to Plymouth for Chinese food and gourmet dinners as well. In Campton, the Little Red Schoolhouse has the best lobster rolls we've ever had! P&S: What did you look forward to the most when you came to your home in Thornton, NH? Sellers: Our beautiful home has a feeling of coziness and warmth. It's an easy place to live and entertain with the open concept floor plan. There is plenty of storage space and the two car garage is huge and heated for the winter months.

There's so much to do. P&S:  What events brought you the most pleasure?  Sellers: Skiing in Waterville Valley, kayaking on the Pemi River and hiking in the National Forest which are minutes away. We've had parties at the activity center and dinner parties at each other's homes in Owls Nest. P&S:  What tips would you give to new people coming into the community?  Sellers: Enjoy Owl's Nest, the mountains, the lakes and the wonderful nature all around the area and the house. There are so many beautiful birds around. [caption id="attachment_3136" align="alignleft" width="135"] The front porch[/caption] P&S: What were the favorite features of your home? What did you enjoy the most? Sellers: The best features of the house are definitely the front porch and the soaring ceilings and the floor to ceiling stone fireplace. When you enter the house, you get the feel of a lodge up in the mountains. The back deck and electric awning is a place that we enjoy all summer long. Our friends love to come by for coffee in the AM and cocktails in the PM.
