hislaine Maxwell's former New Hampshire estate, where she was arrested in 2020, has hit the market for $2.5 million. The 156-acre property, which boasts panoramic views and fine craftsmanship, was purchased by a limited liability company tied to Maxwell and her ex-partner Scott Borgerson in 2019 for $1.1 million.

    The estate's listing makes no mention of its notorious past, instead highlighting its secluded acreage, timber-framed main house, converted barn guesthouse, and sweeping views. However, the property's history is well-documented: Maxwell used a fake identity to purchase the home through Granite Realty LLC, and it served as her final sanctuary before her arrest by the FBI.

    Prosecutors previously revealed that Maxwell posed as a journalist named Janet Marshall to buy the hideaway, using a British accent to convince the real estate agent. The listing now presents a stark contrast to its past, touting the property's rustic-luxury appeal and ideal location for outdoor enthusiasts.

    The sale of the estate has raised questions about who will benefit from the proceeds. Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for aiding Jeffrey Epstein in a sex trafficking scheme and has petitioned the US Supreme Court after a lower court rejected her appeal. An unnamed insider expressed concern that any profits from the sale may fund Maxwell's legal fees rather than compensating victims.

    The property, which includes manicured gardens, a pond, conservation trails, and a full workshop and equipment garage, is listed by Margaret Weathers of Four Seasons Sotheby's. Despite its troubled history, the estate remains an attractive option for those seeking a secluded retreat with breathtaking views.
