DALLAS – Sunninghill Farm, a 287-acre historic equestrian estate in New Hampshire’s forested rolling hills 60 miles from Boston, will be offered at auction with no reserve on July 21 by Heritage Luxury Real Estate Auctions.

This historic family estate, rich with unique features for horse lovers, has been painstakingly and meticulously updated following a $7.5 million, four-year restoration.

The estate amply accommodates a large family within the nine bedrooms on-site, plus plenty of open space to pursue outdoor desires. Built in 1751, the historic main residence offers four bedrooms and six fireplaces; while a restored, 1700s, four-bedroom guesthouse includes an extra full apartment on the lower level. Other outbuildings build on the inherent charm of the estate and include the pool house, designed as a rustic New England sugar-style house, a rustic log cabin and a world-class show jumping facility. An ice-skating pond and an infinity edge saline swimming pool provide postcard perfect relaxation.

The estate can also be easily maintained and overseen by the homestead’s caretaker from the onsite caretaker’s cottage

Sunninghill Farm is a standout among all New England estates acreage in its well-appointed and high-end equestrian facilities, including a heated, nine-stall, restored, 1700s Chestnut barn originally from Massachusetts. A derby field, outdoor arena, paddocks with run-in sheds, trails, and grazing fields, are all within close proximity to scenic nearby lakes and rivers. A heated, indoor, 100-foot by 200-foot area – the largest of its kind in New England – offers year-round training opportunities for the stable.

“When you realize this incredible historic homestead, world-class stables and training grounds are all located just one hour outside of Boston, it’s easy to see why it qualified for a multimillion dollar restoration plan,” said Nate Schar, director of Heritage Luxury Real Estate Auctions. “This is a true piece of history that deserves to be enjoyed by future generations.”

Heritage Luxury Real Estate Auctions presentation of Sunninghill Farm is July 21, with preview dates by appointment. Photos, a video tour of the property, and more are available at HA.com. To learn more, contact Heritage Luxury Real Estate Auctions at 855-261-0573 or luxuryestates@ha.com.
