Bray Hill House - A Private Family Mountain Retreat

ABOUT THE HOUSE

The 2,400-square-foot Bray Hill House was designed by the architectural firm Mirski and Associates. Patterned after the turn-of-the century New England shingle-style houses of the area on the exterior, the spacious and completely modern interior boasts an amazing array of custom features throughout, mid-century modern furniture, and an eclectic assortment of artwork.

The Bray Hill House was custom-built to take advantage of its spectacular mountain setting, with impressive views of three mountain ranges, the Mount Washington and Connecticut River Valleys, and overlooking the small town of Jefferson. Our home’s prime location in the heart of the White Mountains of northern New Hampshire gives our guests easy access to all of the region’s many activities and attractions.

STYLE NOTES

Country contemporary with a stylish vibe in a secluded and private location, this is a light, open, playful but functional home with sophisticated touches, like the unusual lilac-colored stair and balcony railings, floating staircase, and awesome double chimney fireplace. The stained glass elements in the home’s gable sparkle when the house is lit up at night. Bright accents throughout add pops of color to the home’s neutral palette.

The home’s lower level is all about sociability with plenty of space for families, friends, kids and dogs to mix and mingle, cook and eat, while the upper level provides quiet spaces for sleeping, reading and quiet conversations. French doors, multiple windows and the spacious wraparound deck bring the gorgeous views right indoors.

BEDROOMS

Located on the second level with beautiful views of the natural beauty outside, the home’s three bedrooms comfortably sleep 6. Each room is outfitted with a king or queen size bed with luxury linens and pillows, two roomy dressers and large closets, along with all the essentials you need for a carefree stay: shampoo and conditioner, soaps, bath and hand towels, hair dryer, iron, ironing board and more.

The master bedroom features an en-suite bath with jetted tub and a private, enclosed porch; the other bedrooms share a separate, full bathroom. A third bathroom is located on the main level.

CHEF’S KITCHEN AND DINING

The chef’s kitchen is equipped with both an Aga and Jenn-Air range and a Subzero refrigerator/freezer. The large center island and surrounding countertops provide plenty of prep space, and an army of small appliances — KitchenAid stand mixer, automatic rice cooker, drip coffee maker, electric kettle, Instant Pot and more — stand at the ready.

Pull up a chair at the breakfast nook at one end of the kitchen for a meal with a view, perch on the stools at the wet bar adjacent to the kitchen for a drink or a snack, or gather family and friends around the formal dining room table with seating for 6-12.

CUSTOM TOUCHES

The home’s dramatic focal point — the stunning see-through, brick, double-chimney Russian fireplace — is a fine spot to warm up on a chilly day. Other custom touches include rich cherry and ash wood finishes throughout, a two-person indoor dry sauna, lots of handsome built-in cabinetry, and wood-beamed ceilings in the bedrooms.

AMENITIES

Amenities include air conditioning throughout the home, a washer and dryer, flat-screen 4k smart TV, Google WiFi mesh network, Blu-ray/DVD, family-friendly movies and video games. WiFi bandwidth is ~100 Mbps and is provided by Starlink.

We provide a full range of equipment for children, including two teen cots, two toddler cots, two Pack ‘n Plays, a baby gate, plastic dinnerware, and step stools.

Guests have full access to the grounds, including ¾ of a mile of nature trails around the house that follow stone walls, an outdoor fire pit and horseshoe pit, gas grill, deck seating, and outdoor patio seating for six. The property has three outdoor security cameras, one at each entrance to the house.
