set on just under six acres along one of salisbury′s most scenic roads, the bunker hill house is a true one-of-a-kind property. a seasonal haven for accomplished artists since its construction in the late 1970s, the three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is defined by imaginative architecture and thoughtful design. originally constructed using repurposed metal agway barns, the home itself is an expression of creativity. at its center, a light-filled entry way connects the home′s two wings. skylights overhead fill the space with natural light, while french doors open to a private dining porch nestled among seasonal gardens. the south facing wing is split between two levels. downstairs, a welcoming living room features a custom bow window, wall-to-wall bookshelves, and a wood-burning fireplace. upstairs, the primary suite offers its own fireplace and an ensuite full bathroom. the northern wing centers around a bright kitchen with high ceilings, an eat-in dining area, and a window bench. beyond, the library is one of the home′s defining spaces, with custom floor-to-ceiling bookshelves lining three walls and a large picture window overlooking the front gardens. across the hall, an octagonal bedroom opens onto a private porch, while an adjoining office leads to the home′s third bedroom. rising above it all is the octagonal viewing tower, where expansive windows frame sweeping views of the gardens, surrounding hills, and distant mountain ranges.
outside, the landscape has been carefully cultivated over decades. a fenced-in garden with raised garden beds, fruit trees, fern groves, and established perennial gardens makes the property both beautiful and functional throughout the seasons. as a final expression of the property′s playful and creative spirit, a staircase climbs to the summit of "the big rock," revealing a new point of view- in many ways, perhaps. offering exceptional privacy just minutes from the center of salisbury, the property is within walking distance of the lion′s head trail and provides easy access to the area′s celebrated lakes, dining, and shopping. equal parts home, retreat, and creative sanctuary, the bunker hill house is a special home in a special part of the world. offered as-is.
