Hearth Home overlooks Little Squam Lake, with Mount Chocorua and Big Squam to the East. The design of this custom home has thoughtfully merged the charm of a modern farmhouse with the elegance of a hillside retreat. Built in 2020, the property was featured in New Hampshire Home magazine for its unique architecture and open-concept layout. At the center of the home is a gorgeous double-sided wood-burning hearth that connects all the individual spaces on the main floor and is the backdrop for stunning Lake and Mountain views across the valley. Timber beams define the ceiling, which leads from the three-story stair tower and entryway through the living room to the gourmet kitchen, where quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, and shaker cabinets await you. Filled with natural light, the dining room features natural wood and a timber vaulted ceiling, slate flooring, and large windows that offer unobstructed views and connect you to the landscape and outdoor gathering spaces. Guest rooms reside within the lower level of the home, where a sitting nook carved into the stair tower anchors the informal family room. This space is extended by a wide doorway leading to the bunkroom, which has built-in bunk beds and a window seat. The third bedroom guest suite is very private and allows access to the outside and meadow below. The top of the stair tower guides you to the primary suite, where an unencumbered view resides along with the propane fireplace. A bright, airy bathroom and dressing room occupy the rest of the floor and create a spa-like retreat within the eaves of the home. This luxury home is a must-see, with an incredible amount of time and effort spent on its design and construction. Delayed showings until Open House on Saturday, 4/4/26.
