Welcome to 477 East Mountain Road - Peterborough's Crown Jewel! Perched on prestigious East Mountain Road, the magnificent "Knights Hill" estate-once the historic home of conservationist and benefactor Josie Kane-has been meticulously restored to its former grandeur while enhanced with modern luxuries. Encompassing 6/7 bedrooms, 5 baths, and approximately 5,000 square feet of sophisticated living space, the residence is surrounded by hundreds of acres of meadows, woodlands, and includes conserved land, ensuring unrivaled privacy and sweeping ridge views across the Monadnock region. A long, scenic private drive leads to a stately courtyard and guest cottage. Through a grand mahogany doorway, the soaring great room impresses with cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors, and a commanding stucco fireplace. The chef's kitchen with granite island and octagonal breakfast alcove serves as the heart of the home, while the owner's wing offers dual elegant baths and a refined private retreat. Guests are graciously accommodated in a standalone cottage or in the carriage house apartment with its own kitchen, bath, and private entry-perfect for in-laws, staff, or extended stays. Outdoor living features expansive bluestone terraces, manicured gardens, and open columned porches framing some of New England's finest mountain views. Just minutes from downtown Peterborough and within easy reach of Boston, this extraordinary estate is a rare legacy offering that combines history, seclusion, and timel
