About This Home

As of December 2012

Just as rare as the property itself is this opportunity to actually own a historically significant part of the Chocorua Lake Basin. Built in 1885 in the Chocorua summer colony is this substantial cottage commissioned by Boston architect C. Howard Walker. A rambling home of 4800 SF this jewel boasts craftsmanship and details of a bygone era. The wrap-around porch uses fieldstone from the local area, and invites one to linger over the magnificent views of Mt. Chocorua, the most photographed mountain in America! Enter into the main parlor which features a floor to ceiling fireplace, arched doorways of natural woods, several window bays and seats and original hardwood floors. The open floorplan is wonderful for entertaining! Summer fun with games on the sweeping front lawns, swimming & kayaking from the pristine shores of Chocorua Lake, and hiking miles from your front door will add a lifetime of great memories. Lovingly owned for decades, now it's your turn to own this one-of-a-kind gem!
