Description

A rare offering on historic Barndoor Island on Lake Winnipesaukee. This warm and inviting 3 bedroom, 1 bath home features a level lot, open concept living, dining, and kitchen all with stunning lake views. Looking out to the broads, the long range 180 degree views are truly majestic, and the sunsets stunning! Take an early morning kayak or paddle board around the island with the loons. A path in back of the home leads to the old construction road on the island interior, used when homes were first built here in the 1970's. The "road" has become a beautiful path for running, biking or taking a nature walk. Included with this property is a deeded dock on the east side of the island for those windy days. There is also a generous sized shed that could be converted into a bunkhouse very easily. Barndoor Island is in close proximity to downtown Wolfeboro by boat, offering shopping, restaurants, ice cream, coffee shops and much more. This property won't last. Be in to enjoy the 2022 summer season.
