Spanning the full width of Melody Island, 2 Melody Island is a truly remarkable and one-of-a-kind Lake Winnipesaukee retreat. With approximately 315 feet of waterfront on both sides of the island, the property offers the rare opportunity to enjoy beautiful sunrises from one shoreline and spectacular long-range sunset views from the other. The property’s diverse shoreline features multiple swimming areas, including sandy beaches and a naturally formed submerged stone terrace. This distinctive in-water gathering area provides a wonderful place for swimmers to stand, sit, and relax while surrounded by the lake (an especially memorable feature for family and friends of all ages). The main residence offers three bedrooms and a spacious, open-concept living area centered around a beautiful stone fireplace. Expansive lake views bring the beauty of Winnipesaukee indoors, while comfortable gathering spaces create an inviting setting for entertaining, relaxing, and making lasting memories. A separate bunkhouse provides additional privacy and flexibility for guests, complete with its own bathroom, laundry facilities, and generous sleeping accommodations. Together, the main house and bunkhouse offer ample space to welcome extended family and friends while allowing everyone to enjoy a sense of privacy. Conveniently located just a 5 minute boat ride from Wolfeboro, Melody Island offers close proximity to shopping, dining, coffee shops, and town docks adding to the ease and enjoyment of island living. With its extraordinary shoreline, sunrise-to-sunset views, 2 Melody Island is a rare and unforgettable retreat that captures the very best of Lake Winnipesaukee island living.
