The Good Life on Long Pond
Life is good when you can live in a waterfront home surrounded by nature. At 131 Long Pond in Northwood NH is on the pristine waters of the very deep, spring fed 100 acre Long Pond just a few yards of level grounds from your home. Being far enough away from city lights and busy roads you can enjoy crystal clear starry nights and listen to the call of the resident loons. All the stresses of the day begin to melt away as you drive down the meandering tree-lined private well maintained road. A second lot of record is across the street consisting of an 2.3 acres of forest, a state approved septic design, 2 car garage, and a place to build your own private water access home.
The lake side home has been tastefully renovated throughout with features many homeowners could only dream of. A screened porch to enjoy the view all day long, a deck above off the main level with stairs to the level waterfront grounds, and aluminum dock . Inside are two separate brick fireplaces-- one with a propane ventless open flame fireplace that provides heat and the look of a real wood fire without the mess. The kitchen features professional grade stainless appliances, granite tops and soft close cabinets. New systems provide on demand hot water and energy efficient living.
Explore pathways to the hidden 30+ acre Little Bow Lake teaming with nature framed by 100s of acres of lush managed tree farm forest. You will be part of a fiscally prudent homeowners group you will be proud to call your neighbors. Located in the Coe Brown Academy district and within 45 minutes to Manchester Airport, the Lakes Region, Mountains, Portsmouth and the seacoast. Enjoy years of fond memories and the good life at home.
