Description

A rare opportunity to own a piece of Lake Winnipesaukee history on iconic Pitchwood Island. Originally built in the 1890s, this three-story Victorian-style home combines historic character with thoughtful updates while capturing spectacular westerly views, stunning sunsets, and front-row seats to the Weirs Beach fireworks displays. Set on a level, grassy 1.06-acre lot with approximately 150 feet of sandy waterfront, the property offers exceptional outdoor enjoyment in a picturesque island setting. A 50-foot L-shaped dock provides ample space for boating, while the wraparound porch is the perfect place to relax and take in the expansive lake views. Rich in local history, the home once operated as an inn and later served as the administrative building for Camp Wadaga. Inside, period details remain throughout, including hardwood floors, decorative tin ceiling tiles, and the timeless charm expected from a home of this era. Vinyl replacement windows and a newer roof provide important updates while preserving its character. The town tax card identifies the home as having five bedrooms, and the property is served by a state-approved four-bedroom septic system. The interior offers a blend of historic architecture and updated living spaces, creating a comfortable retreat while honoring its storied past. Two baths, including a ¾ bath and a half bath, serve the home. A separate bunkhouse offers additional space and awaits refreshing. Whether enjoying swimming from the sandy shoreline, entertaining on the porch, spending the day on the lake, or simply watching the sun set over the water, this property delivers a classic Lake Winnipesaukee experience that is increasingly difficult to find. Combining history, character, a large level lot, substantial waterfront, and exceptional western exposure, this distinctive island property is ready for its next chapter.
