Open the door to Lake Winnipesaukee waterfront living possibilities with this inviting Varney Point property in Gilford, NH and move in before Memorial Day. Framed by stunning sunset views over Saunders Bay and set on 135 feet of private shoreline, this year-round home offers the rare combination of move-in comfort and true renovation potential. The sandy swim area, reached by gentle steps, and the concrete pier with 2 deep water slips create a variety of ways to access the lake. On a footprint just over 20 feet from the waterfront both levels of the home have excellent views of the water and sunset. This offers an inspiring backdrop whether you're dreaming of a simple refresh or a full transformation into your ideal lakeside retreat. A detached two-car garage has carriage-house potential with views of the lake from both levels offering even more room for guests or future customization. With town sewer and a 450-foot drilled well, the property provides essential infrastructure for renovation flexibility. The home has been cared for by the same family since 1974 and is ready for its next chapter, whether you lean into its classic lake camp charm or transform it to meet your vision. All of this sits just 20 minutes from I-93 and minutes from Lake Region favorites, including the Bank of NH Pavilion. Varney Point property owners may also join the association for a nominal fee, gaining access to community water access and social activities. OPEN HOUSE March 21, 2026 10 AM – 12 NOON
