000 Meriden RoadLebanon, NH 03766Price: $889,000

Offered for the first time since the 1940s, this extraordinary 131± acre property presents a rare opportunity to own a significant private landholding in Lebanon, New Hampshire. Located along Route 120/Meriden Road near the Plainfield town line, the property offers an exceptional combination of privacy, natural beauty, abundant natural resources, and convenient access to the Upper Valley. Professionally managed as forestland, with the last timber harvest occurring in the 1970s, the property features mature timber and an abundance of maple with potential for a substantial sugar orchard. A timber appraisal report is available upon request. The property offers frontage along Great Brook, complemented by a tributary brook and a diverse landscape of mature forest, meadow wetlands, and exceptional wildlife habitat. Considerable frontage along Meriden Road provides potential access for a private estate or other residential possibilities. No soil or perc testing, subdivision approvals, or development permits have been obtained; buyers to perform their own due diligence. For those drawn to the outdoors, the scale and diversity of the land provide exceptional opportunities for hiking, hunting, wildlife observation, maple sugaring, forestry, and year-round recreation. Its extensive forest and water resources may also hold particular interest for conservation and long-term stewardship. Perhaps most compelling is the opportunity to enjoy this degree of acreage, privacy, and connection to the natural landscape while remaining conveniently connected to Dartmouth College, Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, major Upper Valley employers, and the region's cultural and recreational amenities. Held by the same family for generations and now offered for the first time in more than 80 years, this is an increasingly uncommon opportunity to acquire a remarkable piece of the Lebanon landscape and become its next steward.
