25.8 million, 63,000 sq ft and 16.5 acres on the biggest freshwater lake in NH
Taxes are $337,000 a year. You can buy the homes separately for 12.8 million each if you don't want the whole compound. The owner is Bob Bahre, the former owner of the NH Nascar track that sold last year (his share was 350 million)!

I live in CT and have for 40 years. Expensive is true but I wouldn't make the wage down there like I do here, so it's partly relative...but still FL is way easier than CT or LI for expenses. I have a business here so I have no choice but to stay, however I love the seasons...couldn't imagine not seeing the fall drop...football...apples...fires...etc. We ski in the winter quite a bit so we don't mind snow. And LI Sound, east end of LI are my favorite waters to boat in, I would't want to be anywhere else. I've spent plenty of time in FL, it's no place that has any desire for me from climate to topography, to...anything really except a longer boating season.
I'll tough it out up here, I'd actually like to get a dump in the Hamptons and remodel it and retire there (remodeling/construction is my business), just love the east end of LI.
But from an expense standpoint, you're much better off in FL no question.

Yup, it's huge...a site to see, but that $$$ really limits the market of who can buy and of those who would buy. Our lake is beautiful, but not $45 mil beautiful, if you know what I mean.Many, many 1-3+ million places. A good amt of $3+ places also. 45 mil can buy in a much nicer area. My 02.
BTW: I sat in his box for the races some years ago. Long story. LOL.

If taxes are 1/3 of a million alone I suspect that place would cost 1mm a year to run/own......$55,000 a month left over to staff it, insure it, clean it, cut the grass and run the utilties!

Wish i'd purchased yours. I purchased an 04 Donzi 38zx from Shogrens last fall. We put approx 2 hours on it 40 mph max. My nieces son was scared to death. I didn't want to ruin his possible passion for boating. That was Labor Day Weekend.2015 fast forward 2016 West Michigan Off shore poker run. The 2nd time out with my new boat, very excited, At the second card stop approx 20 miles port engine took a dump.The boat has 160 hours 525's I was informed tonite that engine has been punched 30 already You knew your 35 loved it and cared for it. I sold my 32 Sunsation with Pride and knowing it was 100%. Sogren Does NOT know the brokerage boats only $$ they can make. I would strongley insist on a minimum 4 hour sea trial AND RUN THE **** OUT OF IT. Had I done so .it would not be my wallet or shot summer.

You bought an eleven year old boat and had it for a year. What if the buyer of your Sunsation came back after a year and complained about repairs being needed?

When Speedway Motorsports Inc. bought New Hampshire Motor Speedway in January 2008 for $340 million in cash, it was an indication of what a track that hosted NASCAR races was worth then.
A little less than eight years later, despite increased television revenues, the track-operating company founded by Bruton Smith devalued the 1.058-mile racetrack by approximately $100 million as part of its 2015 second quarter financial report that was released Wednesday.
