Escape to your own private sanctuary in Wolfeboro, America’s oldest summer resort. Tucked away on 39 acres of pristine woodland with the tranquil Willey Brook winding through, this ranch-style residence blends comfort and efficiency. Thoughtfully designed for effortless one-level living, the home offers three bedroom options including a private primary en-suite, an office ideal for remote work, and a full basement with lower-level bath and ample opportunity for future expansion. The heart of the home is the sun-filled kitchen with soaring cathedral ceilings, opening to a bright porch that invites the outdoors in. Rich wood and tile flooring carry throughout, creating a warm yet refined interior. Every detail has been considered, from solar panels for energy efficiency to central air conditioning for cool summer days. A 24x28 detached heated barn with its own dedicated electrical and a storage loft provides endless possibilities, while the paved circular driveway ensures convenience and curb appeal. Wander the established trails that meander through the acreage, relax beside the babbling brook, or simply enjoy the peace and privacy that surrounds you. Despite its secluded setting, this exceptional property is less than ten minutes from the sandy beaches of Lake Wentworth and Lake Winnipesaukee, ski mountains, fine dining, boutique shopping, and hospital. Secure your NH dream today.
