268 MacGregor Hill Road: Chocorua, NH





Recently Reduced to $419,900 this rare offering in the Chocorua Lake Association is a preserved oasis of privacy nestled under the tall pines. The Chocorua Lake Association works hard to preserve the integrity of the Chocorua area, many of you drive through it on Rt 16 as you head into Conway by Chocorua Lake. What you see it what you get... and hopefully for years and generations to come. The CLA has bought up most of the land over the years and the protective covenants make this a true nature lovers paradise.

This cottage style home built by Master Carpenter Sam Newsom has a beautiful first floor Master Suite that could also be used as an in-law space. Looking to have a farm? Plenty of cleared fields and 6 more acres to work with. Lots of options and plenty of bird watching. Call Meg or Mo at Badger Realty to schedule a showing. 603-356-5757 www.badgerrealty.com MLS: 2670563, data supplied by the Northern New England Real Estate Network.

Racing with the Moon at Shawnee Peak

Team Badger Realty consistently pulls in 5th place! Agents Kevin Killourie and Meghan Simone are the only Badger Employees on the team. Killourie hovering in the top 10 weekly, and Simone working for a season long 3rd place finish in the Women's division.

L to R: Pete, Colin, Kevin, Dave, Donnie - Meg & Nate not in photo.
The local Moat Mountain Smokehouse and Brewing company team "Moat Growlers" have imported some ringers, allowing them to take top honors in the Male and Female division weekly. Collin Sullivan-Stevens, Pete Eiermann also drafted from the Portland area, and Don Chase, Nate Camielle, and Dave Eiermann add solid results to Team Badger on a weekly basis. This week was truly "Racing with the Moon" as a HUGE HARVEST MOON rose over Portland. Too bad I didn't have my camera for that moment. It was amazing!

Badger Realty: Condo Sales in the Mt. Washington Valley

Condo sales for the Month of December in Bartlett, NH totalled 6. Conway 5. The average price in Bartlett closing at $192,317 and in Conway $153,340. Average Days on Market were longer in Bartlett, 241 vs. 190 in Conway.

Interest rates are low, and hopefully getting lower, it's a great time to buy, if you can make it work for you! Don't stretch your self thin if you still have to figure out how to put one more kid into college - there will be a right time for every buyer out there. If you need to refinance call me and I would be happy to recommend great local lenders to the Mount Washington Valley.

Condos I personally feel are "hot" right now in Bartlett: Seasons at Attitash Penthouse Units, Top Notch, and Mountainview at Linderhof (the ones at the top of the hill that are contemporary in style - one of the best views in the valley! In my opinion...)

Mountain Meisters Week #2 - Cranmore Mountain

If you live here in the Mount Washington Valley, or if you want to join a team and come up/over for the day...you can do Mountain Meisters at Cranmore every Wed for 10 weeks in the winter. A social event that people of all skiing abilities can have fun at. Some people are very serious, and wear GS suits, others just want to get out and ski one day a week. Some teams end up being free if you have sponsors. It's a win-win for all. Just another fun perk of living in the White Mountains. Today I ran into friends I haven't seen in weeks and got some good exercise on my lunch break. You can see in the photos another blue bird day here in North Conway. Below (click to make larger) the practice course on the Left and the regular Nastar style course on the Right. You can go yellow or green - but you only get one run. Brett Newton in Badger Realty's Rental Department is a top Male racer at Meisters. Kevin Killourie a top racer at Shawnee Peak on Wed nights where I also race.
Don't forget there are slope side listings, and other condos very close to Cranmore - call or email meg@badgerrealty.com for details.

Nordic Skiing in Jackson Village



If you have always dreamed of skiing right from your door - or at least minutes from home, you need to consider living in Jackson, NH -a world famous classic New England Ski Town, rich in ski history. Badger Realty is located in Picturesque Jackson Village right across from the Snowflake Inn and next to the Wildcat Tavern. Right now there are two condos offered trail side on the Wentworth Golf Course. Condos at the Wentworth aren't always on the market, and when they do hit, they usually go fast. One unit has been recently upgraded and remodeled, and the Wentworth does have an on site rental program if you don't plan on living there full time. (Some Scenery from "Around Jackson" on 1/15)



This afternoon I was on assignment to photograph this new listing, (photos below) and thought why not enjoy one of the many reasons why I live here - so I grabbed the skinny skis and into the woods we went. You can ski from Jackson Village up to the Eagle Mountain House. It was sundown, so as the light crept behind Green Hill we zoomed around the Golf Course at the Eagle and then headed back to the Village. There are many levels of Nordic Skiing available at Jackson Ski Touring and they do offer lessons. If you live here, or visit on Fridays you should join the Friday Gliders Social Ski... after all, why not apres! Ski, wine, massage... it just keeps getting better and better - Jackson NH - it's where you want to be!

Call Meghan at Badger Realty to hear more about residential offerings in Jackson. 603-356-5757 or meg@badgerrealty.com



Winter in The Mount Washington Valley

Owners and visitors to Nordic Village and Nestlenook Farm can enjoy a wintertime sleigh ride right next door. This is open to the public as well, so anyone coming up for a weekend getaway can make an afternoon out of ice skating, snowshoeing, and drinking hot cocoa by the fire. Call for reservations 603-383-9443.


Here is a snap shot of a unit at Nordic Village that was just reduced to $205,000 listed by Meghan Simone - Call Badger Realty 603-356-5757 to schedule a showing. Click for details

Jackson, NH - You could live here too!

It's almost the two year anniversary since Lori and Steve set eyes on this great corner lot in Jackson, NH. Since purchase they conseptualized and have built an amazingly unique home practically slope side at Black Mountain. Spectacular views to Doublehead Mountains, and over to Jackson Highlands and Tyrol. This home not only blends with nature, but uses a lot of reclaimed wood in the interior finish. I will be going back when they are done to show case this amazing work "of art". It's not every day you come across a home this "cool"... and wait until you see the inside.....
