Description

Not only can you buy your own spot on Lake Winnipesaukee for only $169,900! It is priced $100,000 under its assessed value! It's unheard of; but it's true and at a price like this you can tell the seller is motivated. Located on the east side of Bear Island in a quiet protected cove. You can choose to fix up this unique cottage or use the .43 acres of land to build your own brand new retreat. The huge deck and dock that can handle 5 or 6 boats are features that cannot be duplicated under today's regulations. This is truly a private sanctuary for the next owner to make all their own. Easy to get to and located in the desirable low tax town of Meredith.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "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!"
