Connect With a Local Real Estate Specialist

Eastman is one of New Hampshire's largest and most established planned residential communities, spanning more than 3,700 acres in Grantham (Sullivan County) and now roughly 50 years old. The Eastman Community Association governs 987 single-family homes and 336 condominiums (with 119 additional privately held undeveloped lots and 331 lots still owned by the Association), built around a private 345-acre lake with six beaches and boat docks, an 18-hole semi-private golf course, tennis and pickleball courts, a Nordic ski center, a community recreation center, and a full-service restaurant -- a genuine four-season lifestyle community rather than a summer-only lake colony.

Housing spans condominiums (2024 median sold price around $380,000) to single-family homes (2025 median sold price around $519,000, with current pending listings' median around $545,000), plus remaining buildable lots. Fees follow a Use Assessment Plan (UAP) rather than one flat HOA rate; a single specific property example reported $455/month, but the Association's own official current schedule could not be fetched this session.

Golf Access

Does buying a home here include club membership?

Buying a home here does not automatically guarantee golf membership unless stated below — confirm access directly with each club.

Golf club membership is optional and open to the public regardless of property ownership; owning in Eastman does not include or require golf membership, though owners receive discounted rates and a modestly earlier tee-time booking window.

Living in Eastman

Eastman is organized as a single large HOA-style Association (the Eastman Community Association) that owns and operates the golf course, lake, beaches, ski center, and recreation facilities as a shared amenity package funded through Use Assessment Plan (UAP) fees, alongside 987 single-family homes and 336 condominiums.
