Designed to be open/airy - at-one with the surrounding nature which begins at the Great Room with 3 story stone fireplace & 20' windows. Features include a Chef's Kitchen with large island, exposed beams, cathedral ceiling & custom cabinets. Then there is the infamous special room known as "The Birdhouse" w/balcony appearing to be supported by a tree below. Each Bedroom has it's own private bathroom. "THE FOREST PATH" leads to an in-law suite complete with a kitchenette, balcony & private entrance. Majestic South Easterly Lake Views, Dock, Raft & Sandy Beach. Abuts 86 acres of conservation land. Artistic masterpiece/amazing craftsmanship . This was the "DREAM HOUSE" of an Artist who SPARED NO EXPENSE in it's construction.....estimated at $10 Million back in 2005. $1+/- Million in MASONRY work alone. Current owners have since repaired/improved every aspect of this amazing property...now truly in "MOVE-IN CONDITION". Amongst the attachments is "a list of updates & fixes" made over the past 3 years & "common feelings and sentiments shared" written by the current owners. Merrymeeting Lake is always a top rated NH lake known for it's pristine crystal clear spring fed waters ideal for fishing, swimming & boating. New Durham is the gateway to the Lakes Region and a transition point between the Mountains & the Seacoast... 90 +/- minutes from Boston. No surprise that this property has been widely written about, including articles in Boston Magazine.. Forgot to mention, the home features state of the art electronics, central air, an on-demand generator and a heated 2 car garage. Excellent weekly rental history. Many disappointed tenants that this special property may no longer be available to rent.
