An extraordinary property tucked into the center of a small New Hampshire town is drawing serious attention from buyers who appreciate both luxury and originality.

Constructed entirely from 15 repurposed shipping containers, the residence at 398 Scofield Mountain Road in Winchester is listed at $5.2 million.

“It’s absolutely stunning in person,” says Susanna Corriveau, an agent with Coldwell Banker.

Described as a private escape from daily pressures, the Kennedy Estate offers a sense of peace and beauty that truly comes alive as you arrive. Guests enter through a gate lined with 63 industrial-style lights leading to the house, passing a pond with a water feature and an outdoor basketball court on the way.

Corriveau explains that the four-bedroom, 5.5-bath home was carefully priced to reflect its many exceptional qualities.

At the front, a generous raised patio sits flush with the main floor, seamlessly extending the indoor living space. Glass bifold doors create a smooth transition to a pergola-shaded outdoor kitchen with a grill and prep station—ideal for entertaining.

Inside, the glass-panel entryway makes a striking first impression. To the left is a chef’s kitchen with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf range, and oversized island. To the right, the living room is anchored by a warm gas fireplace.

The main level also includes a bedroom with en suite bath, a guest bathroom, and a mudroom. Each floor spans 1,600 square feet, with additional square footage in the garage and a finished area above it, for a total of about 5,000 square feet of living space.

“The owners designed the home with great care to fit the quiet character of the town,” Corriveau says. “This mountaintop retreat uses an innovative building approach—15 reinforced steel shipping containers combined with premium materials and expert craftsmanship—to create a truly high-end residence.”

The estate covers 141 acres and, Corriveau emphasizes, stands apart from other high-end properties in Winchester.

“This home is a bold, distinctive statement—every room blends style and tranquility,” she notes. “Expect striking modern finishes, custom built-ins, exposed industrial steel, crisp angles, and every comfort and amenity you didn’t even realize you wanted.”

Interest has already been strong, she adds, with both national and international attention.

“The draw is that this isn’t another classic New England Colonial,” Corriveau says. “It’s a durable, earthquake-resistant, fire-resistant home built from shipping containers—something you won’t see in nine out of ten houses here.”

Among New England’s most distinctive and prestigious properties, this expansive retreat spans more than 140 acres with panoramic vistas stretching across Vermont, Massachusetts, and New York. It’s designed as the ultimate getaway from the pace of daily life—a true architectural showpiece created with precision and care.

Built from 15 repurposed steel shipping containers strengthened with premium construction materials, the residence fuses bold industrial elements with luxurious finishes for a striking yet refined aesthetic.

A private, gated drive ushers you onto the estate, passing a tranquil pond with water feature and a basketball court on the way. This secluded haven offers countless possibilities—whether as a high-end residence, event space, or wellness/yoga retreat.

Inside, each level has been thoughtfully planned. The main floor delivers seamless indoor-outdoor living with an open-concept layout that includes a chef’s kitchen, living room, guest suite, and mudroom. A dramatic floating staircase leads to a second story designed on split levels, creating two 16-by-10-foot balconies at the rear and a 10-by-8-foot balcony overlooking the front patio.

Upstairs, the serene primary suite is joined by two additional en suite bedrooms and a glass-enclosed office. The lower level offers a family room, built-in wine room, bunk area, full bath, and a four-car tandem garage.

Outdoors, a 50-by-45-foot elevated patio with a full outdoor kitchen makes entertaining effortless. Every feature of the home balances function and elegance for a lifestyle that suits all ages.

Located just two hours from Boston, the Seacoast, and the Lakes Region, this exceptional property blends privacy, luxury, and versatility in a way few others can.
