57 Stone RoadGilford, NH 03249Price: $119,000

A 2.05-acre wooded secluded lot in Gilford with its own 50.09 feet of frontage on Stone Road, a paved town road. 57 Stone Road was created as Lot 2 of a two-lot subdivision approved by the Gilford Planning Board on October 15, 1990, and recorded at the Belknap County Registry of Deeds, Drawer L12, Plan 76. That recorded plan did a lot of the early homework. It shows a proposed driveway entering along the frontage strip, a proposed house site, soils data with a percolation test of 8.3 minutes per inch, and a town lot-sizing table showing 48,791 square feet of buildable area for this lot. It also references NHDES subdivision approval No. 39159 and Wetlands Board approval No. 90-1543 for the driveway culverts, both from 1990. The current owners bought the land in 1997 so no one would build behind their home, and it has stayed quiet and wooded ever since. Land this close to everything is hard to find. Gilford Village and downtown Laconia are minutes away. Gunstock, the Gilford town beach on Lake Winnipesaukee, Glendale Docks, and the Bank of NH Pavilion are a short drive, and Gilford residents have town beach rights and launch free at Glendale. Build a year-round home or a weekend place, hold it as a long-term investment, or buy it with the home next door. The adjoining home at 63 Stone Road, a four-bedroom gambrel on 1.93 acres, is listed separately at $649,000, and the two may be purchased together. Gilford parcel ID 203-267-200, assessed at $80,420, 2025 taxes about $953. Deeds, survey, and the 1990 subdivision plan are available on request. The 1990 approvals, soils data, and driveway layout are historical records, not current permits. Buyers must verify zoning, setbacks, frontage requirements, wetlands, driveway and septic permitting, utilities, and development potential with the Town of Gilford and NHDES. Seller makes no representation that the lot is buildable under current regulations.
