The “gorgeous” property, described by William Sweeney, assistant director in charge of the FBI’s New York office, was purchased in December by a company called Granite Realty LLC.

The former owner told The Sun on Thursday the “beautiful” house is set back from the road in a secluded woodland area.

“It was and is a lovely place, I didn’t have any neighbors, that’s kind of the point,” he said. “I imagine that was of interest to the current owner.”

Asked if he was aware Ghislaine, 58, was hiding out at the property, he admitted: “I was not until this morning, I’ve had a lot of calls.

“I never met her or knew her name. The only person involved on behalf of the buyers was an attorney who was a member of the LLC. I’m surprised, I will say.”

The four bed four bath property is located on 156 acres, and is described as “an amazing retreat for the nature lover who also wants total privacy,” according to a real estate listing.

Maxwell was taken into custody by FBI agents and NYPD detectives around 8.30am on Thursday on charges that she helped find young girls for Epstein.

In a press conference, Sweeney said: “We have been discreetly keeping tabs on Maxwell’s whereabouts as we worked this investigation and more recently we learned she had slithered away to a gorgeous property in New Hampshire, continuing to live a life of privilege while her victims lived with the trauma inflicted upon them years ago.”

He added: “We moved when we were ready.”

Epstein, 66, committed suicide at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York last summer while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

For years, Maxwell has been accused by many women of recruiting them to give Epstein massages, during which they were pressured into sex.

Until now, the accusations never resulted in criminal charges.

The home’s former owner said he’s hopeful justice will be served in Maxwell’s case, adding: “I’m all for that. I’ve been reading the newspapers.”

Although there aren’t many homes nearby, one resident told DailyMail.com he had left for work before the FBI arrived at the property, but noticed two “small planes buzzing the area” around 6am.

Federal authorities tracked her down to the stunning abode, photos of which show the home features a lot of natural light.

“From the covered front porch, enter the great room with a floor to ceiling fieldstone fireplace, cathedral ceiling, and a spectacular chandelier, a wall of glass frames a stunning southwestern view beyond the stone patio,” the listing for the property reads, adding “the materials and craftsmanship are the finest.”

The listing boasts the property’s location as 90 minutes from Boston, Massachusetts, close to where her rumored boyfriend Scott Borgerson resides.

She was believed to be living with Borgerson, CEO CargoMetrics Technologies, at his $3million oceanfront mansion in Manchester-by-the-Sea before vanishing last year.

Her new home features “massive perennial gardens and waterfall,” in addition to a den, large dining area, along with a partially finished basement.

Maxwell’s six-count indictment made public on Thursday shows Maxwell has been charged with conspiracy to entice minors to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, enticement of a minor to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, and conspiracy to transport minors with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity.

She’s also been charged with transportation of a minor with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity and two counts of perjury.

The indictment was returned by a jury and dates back to 1994 and is connected to three unnamed victims.

The document claims the three female victims were as young as 14 when they were allegedly recruited, groomed and abused by Maxwell and Epstein.

It adds that the pair “knew for certain” the victims’ ages, and Maxwell is said to have repeatedly lied when questioned about her conduct in order to conceal her alleged crimes.
