17 Croto Lane is all about the view! Set high above the trees, this property offers a sweeping, unobstructed perspective that feels expansive, private, and hard to replicate. It's not just a feature-it's the reason you're here. By day, the landscape stretches out in front of you-quiet, layered, and constantly changing with the seasons. By night, it's just as compelling. With minimal surrounding light, the sky opens up-clear, dark, and full of stars in a way you simply don't see in most places. The home offers three bedrooms and 3 baths, along with an office/AUD space that gives you flexibility without pulling focus from what matters. The main living area is bright and open, oriented to take in the view, with a natural flow that makes everyday living feel connected to the setting. The lower level is more compact but includes walk-out access, making it useful for storage, a workshop, or easy entry after a day outside. The outbuilding is substantial and adds real value-ideal for cars, equipment, or serious hobby space. It's functional, versatile, and a true extension of the property. For those interested in a more rural lifestyle, there's also a paddock and horse stall already in place. Albany is known for its quiet, natural setting, surrounded by the White Mountain National Forest and offering direct access to the Kancamagus Highway, hiking, and year-round outdoor recreation. You're tucked away, yet still within easy reach of North Conway for dining, skiing, and shopping, and a comfortable drive to Wolfeboro and the Lakes Region. This is not a typical property. It's an elevated setting-literally and figuratively-where the view isn't just a feature, it's the entire experience.
