Freshly painted, immaculate and ready for you to move right in, this custom-built home sits just across the street from Hermit Lake, one of the Lakes Region's best-kept secrets. The open floor plan, vaulted ceilings and warm wood beams give it a true country feel, and the quality of the custom design shows in every room. Use it as a cozy second-home getaway or live here year-round. Hermit Lake is a quiet favorite for kayakers and anglers, with great bass fishing, boating and paddling, and a few different beaches and a boat launch nearby. In winter, trade the kayak for cross-country skis or a snowmobile. On warm summer evenings, settle onto the farmer's porch and listen for the resident loons calling across the water. Quick access to I-93 puts all of New Hampshire within easy reach: major ski resorts, shopping, restaurants and more. You are minutes from Lake Winnipesaukee, Lake Winnisquam, Newfound Lake, Lake Waukewan, Lake Wicwas and many others, and less than two hours from Boston. Time to leave the hustle behind and relax.
