Three pieces of the former White Mountain School property are now under new ownership

BETHLEHEM—Although the main campus has found no buyer yet, three pieces of the former White Mountain School property are now under new ownership following an auction on Tuesday. After the WMS board of trustees voted on May 31 to close the college preparatory boarding school following years of financial difficulties, the sale was facilitated by the Portland, Maine-based Tranzon Auction Properties. The White Mountain School had been in the North Country since 1936. In addition to the opportunity for a sale in its entirety, five separate sale groupings were offered for various pieces along Old Franconia Road and West Farm Road. The auction drew about 40 people, including several local business owners, realtors and representatives of local nonprofits.
