    Classic New England character and thoughtful updates come together in this spacious 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath home in the heart of Laconia. Originally built in 1920, the home showcases timeless architectural details including original pocket doors, hardwood floors, and natural wood trim throughout, while recent improvements provide modern comfort and peace of mind. Updates include a new wall-hung boiler, vinyl windows, vinyl siding, and 50-year shingles. The first floor offers inviting and functional living spaces with a spacious dining room, welcoming living room, and a sun-filled playroom ideal for everyday living or entertaining. The open kitchen flows into a cozy sunroom featuring a gas-burning stove, creating the perfect spot to relax year-round. Upstairs, the second level includes the primary bedroom, full bathroom, and three additional bedrooms or flexible office space. The third floor opens up endless possibilities with additional living space, bonus room, or guest accommodations complete with a 3/4 bath. Outside, step from the back deck into the fenced backyard offering room for pets, play, or gardening. A one-car garage provides additional storage, and the shared driveway adds convenient access. Ideally located just steps from Lake Winnisquam and only minutes from downtown Laconia, you’ll enjoy easy access to local restaurants, shopping, marinas, theaters, and year-round recreation in the heart of the Lakes Region.
