A truly rare opportunity to own a remarkable property listing that offers a perfect blend of historic charm and lakeside vacationing. Built by Steven Woodward in 1883, this home features a unique history; it was later owned by Albert Johnson, a railroad agent in Weare, NH, who modeled the interior after a railroad station, complete with a ticket window, pantry, and parquet flooring in the living room. In 1945, the property was sold to the Breck family. Please note that the property has deed restrictions, yet providing littoral rights. The original survey started 50 feet from Lake, the precursors to shoreland waterfront buffer protections. Set in a peaceful setting with stunning water views, this seasonal camp invites you to enjoy everything the lake has to offer, from kayaking, waterskiing, boating, and fishing to quiet mornings overlooking the water. Inside, you’ll find a warm and inviting cottage filled with natural light and designed to maximize the surrounding scenery. The layout features a kitchen with a pantry, a bright dining and living area perfect for hosting family and friends, 3 bedrooms, a full bath, and an additional half bath. Step outside to enjoy the true highlight of the property: direct access to Lake Sunapee in a setting that is increasingly hard to find in today’s market. It is the perfect spot to enjoy your coffee overlooking the water, host summer gatherings, or simply unwind in your own private retreat. The home is nestled in Blodgett Landing, conveniently close to New London and Newbury amenities, and only 10 minutes from Vail Mount Sunapee Resort. Perfect for a vacation getaway or a historic investment.
