Thornton NH - This is not your typical new construction. Set on 1.36 secluded acres in Thornton, NH, this off-grid ranch is designed for those who think ahead. From the outside, it looks like a classic New England home. Inside, it’s a fortress. Reinforced concrete walls, steel framing, and storm-rated roof trusses form the shell. The home is bullet-resistant, blast-resistant, and built to function fully off-grid—with solar power, battery storage, private well, propane furnace, and optional systems for EMP resistance and even radioactive air filtration.With two bedrooms, two full baths, an office, and open-concept living space, comfort is part of the design. The walkout basement includes a two-bay garage and utility room, giving the home both function and flexibility. A rear deck opens to peaceful woods, offering total privacy just minutes from Route 93.Whether you’re looking for a high-end retreat, a bug-out location, or a full-time homestead, this property offers resilience without sacrifice.
