For sale: 32 foot tall lighthouse set on the top of a 1300' high hill in Newport, New Hampshire. If you are an artist, writer, musician, craftsman, telecommuter or pharophile (lighthouse lover) seeking your own private creative space, this is for you. The lighthouse has two stories with a lamp room and rotating beacon on top. It is completely finished inside, heated, insulated and built to code for potential living space. The first floor measures 16' x16' with pine walls and a star embossed tin ceiling. This could be your workshop or studio. A custom spiral staircase leads to the 13' x 13' second floor. Finished in pine with honey colored floor - a great space for writing your book or running your home office. A stair ladder leads up to the hexagonal lamp room with windows facing in all directions, a deck and views for miles. The lamp is mounted in an antique copper ship's lantern with a Fresnel lens. Situated on a private lot you have the complete peace and quiet of what feels like your own island. Built in 2015 to the design of a Canadian Pepper Pot lighthouse, the building is 18' x18' with cedar shingles over 2x8 walls set at a 79 degree angle. With the lighthouse comes a three bedroom, 2 ½ bath custom built home, an over-sized two car garage, six acres of land and hundreds of feet of field-stone walls.
