About this property

Wonderful Views and Mountain Charm and on Beautiful 50 Acre Farm

Enjoy the Sullivan Farm, a beautifully remodeled 200-year-old farmhouse with stunning views. Relax while listening to the sounds of the birds, the sound of the nearby stream and the wind in the trees. Enjoy breakfast with spectacular morning sun and the view of Cone Mountain across the meadow, full of wildflowers, and surrounded by the White Mountain National Forest. Great place for large groups and family gatherings with activities for all ages.

The old historic Sullivan Farm has been remodeled with modern comforts, 3-star comfort and a 5-star location. This is the last house on the road with over 20 acres of fields which guarantees peace and quiet with great views on all sides. There is a screened porch for outside dining, a formal dining room with grand fireplace, a large open kitchen, and an adjoining great room for relaxing. There are 3 bedrooms (2 on the first-floor, 1 on the second-floor finished attic) with 3 queen size beds, 2 doubles, 1 bunk bed and 1 single (1 up and 1 down). The house sleeps 13 and with cots for extras. There are 2 bathrooms with showers and a washer and dryer. A hot tub on the back deck with a wonderful view of the stars and the mountains is a pleasant way to finish a day of skiing or hiking.

The Sullivan Farm is a circa 1800 farmhouse that was the original homestead in Mill Brook valley. The farm has the classic layout of big house, little house, back house, barn. There are 4 structures, the original farmhouse, a small mid-barn built shortly after the farmhouse. A portion of the mid-barn was converted to living quarters as they expanded. After which a large 40’ x 50’ post and beam barn was constructed. The in-line layout is pleasant for summer and winter as it creates a windbreak to enjoy mild weather in an otherwise windy valley. There is a wood stove in the Great Room for warming up on cold days. There are 2 fireplaces, one in the dining room and another in the bedroom. There is an old-fashioned hand-operated pitcher pump on the kitchen sink. Farm tools, some original to the Sullivan Farm, adorn the house. The spectacular setting and barn are a wonderful location for a rustic low key wedding. The wonderful old barn has some fun games for evenings and rainy days with corn hole, darts, and a swing.

Nestled in the top of Mill Brook Valley, the Sullivan Farm is a great place for a summer get away for hiking, swimming, and relaxing with the slow pace of a mountain retreat.

Remarkable views for fall colors and leaf peeping. You need not leave the house to enjoy the amazing fall colors with views of mountains and valleys on all 4 sides.

A winter retreat with a 30-minute drive to Cannon, Loon, and Waterville.

Fantastic hiking and cross-country skiing from the house and views of the top of Waterville Valley on the other side of the ridge. The driveway is the old Dickey Notch Road with Dickey Notch less than 1 mile away and only a few miles away from hiking trail access to the Welch-Dickey Loop, Fischer Mountain, and Mount Tecumseh and the heart of the White Mountains.

Go for a swim at the community pond and beach and play a game of horseshoes. Enjoy a swim or soak up the views at the Mill Brook Cascade waterfall a short walk away. Good swimming and great views.

A quick ride down Mill Brook valley brings you to Benton’s Sugar Shack for breakfast and freshly made maple syrup. A 10-minute drive to Campton offers restaurants, groceries, ice cream, coffee, hardware, and more.

This will be a place that you will want to return to vacation again.

Weekend trip
We loved the house! We had adults, kids, teens, and dogs! Not too far from ice castles and just a great house to stay cozy and hang and eat and play games. The short walk to the waterfall was nice too and the waterfall in the winter was spectacular. Would love to come back in Summer/Fall.

Enjoy a Restored Antique
We live in a restored 1830 colonial and fully appreciate the work, love and money that Rob put into restoring this 1800 farm. Don't expect a modern, perfect home. Enjoy an old but modernized antique. Very comfortable, very quiet on its 50+acres. The extensive grounds around the house were great for our dogs, and safe. The huge barn is an adventure in itself. Good but isolated location, near attractions. Plymouth is only 13 miles away for shopping if needed. Very enjoyable week.
Stayed 9 nights in Oct 2023
