Escape to the timeless charm of island living on Lake Winnipesaukee. Set on Lockes Island in Gilford, this classic cottage pairs spectacular long-range views with crystal-clear water and inviting spaces for summer days at the lake. Arrive by boat at the large dock with breakwater, then settle onto the expansive porch that stretches across the front of the home. A brand-new outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven makes it easy to gather for meals by the water. Inside, oversized living room windows frame panoramic lake views. The kitchen has been partially updated with new appliances and cabinetry and is awaiting your finishing touches. A first-floor bedroom offers convenient access, while the large open area upstairs, provides room for family and guests. Just a short boat ride from the Gilford town docks, with resident parking and occasional day docking, the cottage also puts Weirs Beach and Meredith within easy reach for dining, shopping, and entertainment. Come make this island retreat your summer tradition. (the property has a four bedroom septic system, and architectural renderings have been completed for a new build providing potential for future expansion).
