The home
About this home
Classic New Hampshire charm meets the quintessential lake lifestyle! Located directly across the street from beautiful Lake Winnipesaukee, this charming 1942 home offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the lake without the waterfront price tag. Take in the ever changing scenery of the lake, then head down to your leased mooring, jet ski lift, swim platform, and sitting deck to spend the day swimming, relaxing, or enjoying the water. It’s the perfect setup for embracing everything that makes lake living so special. The location is equally appealing, with easy access to the many attractions of New Hampshire’s Lakes Region. Enjoy boating, swimming, fishing, hiking, and exploring during the warmer months, then trade the lake for the slopes in winter with several popular ski areas within easy reach. Fall brings spectacular foliage, while spring and summer offer endless opportunities for outdoor adventure. Add in nearby restaurants, shopping, golf, and charming New Hampshire towns, and you’ll find recreation and relaxation in every direction. This home offers a wonderful blend of classic character and thoughtful updates. Gorgeous original wood flooring brings warmth and timeless appeal, while a newer heating system adds modern comfort. Many improvements have already been made, while some of the home’s original features remain including the kitchen, offering the opportunity to add your own style and vision. Whether you’re searching for a year-round residence, a weekend escape, or a place to gather with family and friends, this property offers something truly special: lake views, convenient lake access, classic New Hampshire charm, and a four-season lifestyle in one of the state’s most sought-after regions.
