A Tower House

A bird’s eye view of the “tower house” as seen in winter 2020, and used in the real estate listing.

Spring 2020 – We had a lot of spare time at home due to Covid, and spent some of it on the internet looking for our “retirement home”. We had a shopping list of things we thought were important to look for… we wanted privacy, a nice piece of land, a big ass garage for our cars, a unique style of architecture (not cookie cutter), a location near cultural opportunities, maybe close to the ocean… we had a big list for our dream house for sure! Then we saw this house for sale in Lee, NH, and thought wow, a huge garage AND a tower! Who buys a house with a tower? Who builds a house with a 6 story tower? We had to find out more….
