It’s not every day you see a home made out of shipping containers. Especially not a 5,120-square-foot stunner set on 140 sprawling acres in New Hampshire.

Tucked behind a gated entrance, 398 Scofield Mountain Road in the town of Winchester is a four-bed, six-bath home crafted from 15 retrofit steel shipping containers. Built in 2024, it’s a seamless blend of industrial design and high-end finishes.

“They’ve been seized, anchored, and reinforced by top-grade building components to the highest standards of the trade,” says Susanna Corriveau of Coldwell Banker Realty, who has the listing. “You can actually see the inside of the shipping containers, the metal components. Those are all exposed.”

The property welcomes guests on a long, winding drive featuring 160 industrial lights that lead you over the threshold of the gate and continue past a pond and a basketball court. Upon reaching the home, a set of stairs leads up to the 2,250-square-foot raised patio, positioned at the same level as the first floor of the home and functioning as a natural extension of the house. Glass bi-fold patio doors create a seamless indoor/outdoor aesthetic. You’ll also find an outdoor kitchen with a grill and prep space covered by a pergola.

Step inside the front door and to the left is the kitchen, where there’s a massive center island and Sub-Zero appliances. On the right is the family room, where a gas fireplace holds court. In the back of the house, you’ll find an en suite guest bedroom, as well as a mudroom space with a half-bathroom.

A floating staircase cascades upward to the second story. At the top, a reading nook with glass doors is a tranquil escape. You’ll find three more en suite bedrooms, each with cool balconies of its own. That includes the spacious primary suite, which has a walk-in closet.

On the 1,600-square-foot lower level, you’ll find a spacious family room with a particularly unique area with three cool built-in bunks.

“Each bunk has their own little TV and charging station,” says Corriveau.

The lower level also features a wine room with extensive built-ins, a laundry room, and a full bathroom. There’s also a tandem four-car garage. Above the garage, you’ll find a space that could easily be converted into an office or yoga room.

“There are endless possibilities for that space,” says Corriveau.

The two-hour drive to Boston is also ideal for anyone looking to commute into the city without difficulty. And come fall, the leaf peeping will be incredible.

“It’s truly breathtaking. I can only imagine it in the fall with the foliage,” said Corriveau, who noted that the home is being sold furnished. “It’s truly just a spectacular view.”
