Rich in New England charm, this circa 1785 home blends original character with thoughtful updates and everyday comfort. Modern conveniences such as a hot air heating system and concrete foundation complement the home's historic appeal, while the flexible floor plan offers space for a variety of living arrangements. The bright entry room overlooks the backyard, in-ground pool, and gardens, and sits just steps from the kitchen and dining room, creating an inviting space for gathering and everyday living. Warm and welcoming living spaces are filled with character, including exposed beams, built-ins, wide plank wood floors, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace that anchors the living room. A first-floor bedroom and half bath complete the main level. Upstairs, the second floor includes a spacious primary suite, two additional sleeping spaces, and a full bath. Recent improvements include upgrades to the primary bath, increased insulation, extensive interior and exterior painting, and significant landscaping enhancements that have revitalized the property both inside and out. Outside, the refreshed grounds feature mature shrubbery, rejuvenated gardens, a gated entrance, storage shed, and an in-ground pool ideal for summer enjoyment. The attached two-car garage includes bonus space above and connects to a private first-floor guest or in-law area, offering flexibility for extended family, guests, or additional living space while still maintaining separation from the main home. Conveniently located, the property offers easy access to Lake Winnipesaukee, marinas, nearby golf courses, shopping, restaurants, and Gunstock Mountain Resort for year-round recreation in the heart of the Lakes Region.
