In 1790, the Wingate Farm was a place of fields and open land where livestock could roam free. Calling your neighbor required a good set of lungs. It was a days trip to Melvin Village for provision. Heat was from the wood you split by hand with an ax. Air conditioning was from a breeze through open windows. Work began before the birds woke up. The Wingate Farm is one of Tuftonboro’s early center chimney colonials on 78 acres with 6 renovated outbuildings and gunite inground pool. The main house has 7 fireplaces, chefs kitchen, custom hand crafted work. Period historic details remain the same--only much much better. This is a place like no other in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire
