Known by the Lake Harding locals as The Library, this property was built in 1914 by Pepperell Mills as a library for use by its employees in Valley. "The Library" has served as a lakefront home since 1980, and today stands as one of the most storied and distinctive properties on the lake. Completely remodeled and updated in 2016, this 2 bedroom, 2 bath retreat seamlessly blends modern comfort with its original historic charm. Heart pine floors flow throughout most of the home, a beautiful nod to the craftsmanship of a bygone era. The primary bedroom enjoys its own private deck with stunning lake views — wake up and take in the sunrise right from your doorstep.Step outside and experience lakefront living at its finest. A covered deck offers sweeping views of Lake Harding, perfect for morning coffee or entertaining large groups of guests. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with charming brick pathways that wind through lush plantings, raised garden beds, and a dedicated garden shed — everything a green thumb could want. The *DEEDED* lakefront lot includes a covered boathouse and dock, as well as a private boat ramp — a rare amenity that sets this property apart from nearly everything else on the market. Whether you're drawn to the history, the character, or simply the lifestyle, The Library is truly one of a kind. Properties like this don't come along often — and when they do, they don't last long.
