70 Holiday Lane, Hampstead, NH

Arguably the best waterfront location on Big Island Pond, sits this one-of-a-kind historic lakefront cottage, high on a granite bluff overlooking 295+-ft of water frontage! After 86 years of ownership, this family has decided to sell their beloved waterfront home. A long treed entrance and circular driveway only enhance this 4 bedroom seasonal cottage. Perfectly situated on nearly an acre of land and soaking up southern exposures, the stonewall-lined waterfront boasts a sandy bottom beach, dock, and a boat house- rare on Big Island Pond! Perhaps the pièce-de-résistance is the generous screened-in porch presiding over stunning views of the pond and nearby island. Step back in time upon entering the cottage"¦ a brick fireplace in the living room, wood floors, and beamed ceilings. Views from almost every window. The kitchen is large with a vintage cast iron sink and plenty of space for all the chefs in the family. Beyond the dining room and living room, a primary bedroom, full bath, laundry room, and powder room complete the first floor. 3 cozy bedrooms upstairs, all with multiple windows for natural summer cross breezes. There are two additional buildings on the property; a large storage building with loft, and garage with a small shop. A 45-minute drive into Boston makes commuting to your lakeside oasis a dream. Whether your days are filled with swimming, fishing, boating and water sports, or hilltop cookouts and summer beverages on the porch, it's time to make your memories!
