About This Home

As of June 2019

Look no further for one of the nicest beaches on Lake Winnipesaukee! Located on tranquil Melvin Bay between Wolfeboro and Melvin Village, it has 150 feet of wide, level sandy beachfront just outside the house. The western exposure produces incredible sunset views over the lake and beach. This quintessential lakefront home was built in 1947 using lumber and stones from nearby and has never been listed until now. There are 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, a large bunkroom on the second floor. A few feet away from the house is a detached study/guestroom for extra privacy. For easy cleanup after swimming and beach fun, there is a handy outdoor shower next to the side entrance. An additional 96 feet of shoreline and the border along Copps Brook is owned by a group of like-minded Merrymount Association members who purchased the lot to protect it from development. Merrymount is a small association of 10 lots and includes an association "Big Dock" at the opposite end of Merrymount. Copps Brook is also perfect for canoes and kayaks, the brook provides excellent viewing of wildlife. Not included in the sale is Parcel 1 on Carroll County Deed Book 3042, page 552.
