Description

Experience resort-like living with this exceptional 3 bed 1.5 bath custom renovated ranch situated just 30' from water's edge with 165' of waterfront, and an oversized composite wrap-around deck. Renovation to studs completed in 2021 included new plumbing and 200 amp electric, with high-end finishes typically found in mainland properties. A custom designed kitchen with leathered granite and oversized island has $40k in premium kitchen appliances including Wolf, Subzero, Asko, and XO. Maibec pre-treated cedar shakes and a metal roof along with Marvin doors and windows including a 16' panel slider take advantage of the fabulous views. Inside find 5 zone Mitsubishi mini splits for heat and a/c, an expanded custom main bathroom, a jack and jill bath between the spare bedrooms. a cathedral ceiling and 2 oversized lofts for expanded sleeping space. The walls and ceilings are insulated and finished with tongue and groove planks. There are custom blinds throughout the house, motorized at the slider and kitchen sink. The 75' seasonal U shaped dock has composite decking matching the house and space for multiple boats and jet skis. Enjoy the beautiful, expansive sugar sand beaches on either side of the dock. A new $35k custom outdoor kitchen was installed in 2024 under cover of the 12x15 louvered pergola with motorized roof panels. The 16x16 bunkhouse is finished to the same quality and detail as the main house. There is a custom 12x20 shed with a workshop and inside & out storage.

  • Aaron C.
    "Great family friendly area. Lots to do in the area. The town of Meredith is very pretty and has lots to offer. Also, Weirs Beach is about a 15 minute car ride or 10 minute boat ride away. Everything is very convenient. I miss the house that we used to own there, and would love to go back. Meredith is a great area!"
