76 Veasey Shore - The Hour between Dog and Wolf Still Shows this Property as Unambiguously Lovely

[gallery columns="4" ids="1705,1706,1707,1708,1709"]

New Twilight Photos of 76 Veasey Shore Road, Meredith

The" hour between dog and wolf" comes from the French phrase "entre chien et loup".  It refers to a certain time of day that the lighting is shifting, making it difficult to discern between dog and wolf, friend or foe.

October itself is a month of shifting, when all the colors of Fall can come and go quickly. When the wind can obliterate the colors overnight and the new day can seem like a new world more than a new month.

The excitement in the ever-changing days of October is one of the aspects I love about New Hampshire and Lake Winnipesaukee.  A property like 76 Veasey Shore, Meredith NH, which has expansive lake and mountain views and ponds surrounded by gardens and woodlands is a serene world almost unto itself and a perfect spot to enjoy the ever-shifting days of Fall in New Hampshire.

The photos of 76 Veasey Shore taken at twilight, when many trees are already losing their leaves, is a type of moody beauty not always used to market Winnipesaukee Lake Homes for Sale, but the seasons are one of the reasons New Hampshire is magnificent and these photos celebrate it.

The elements of New Hampshire celebrate the mystery and potential for change in everything in our world.

Come enjoy the beauty of the elements at 76 Veasey Shore on October 12th 11AM-2PM.

As a preview, view the twilight photos of 76 Veasey Shore on the 76 Veasey Twilight Photos Link.

What Secrets Does Windermere Hold?

What Secrets Does Windermere Hold?

Windermere is a road poised at the end of Long Island.  Windermere Estates is the last named and gated neighborhood on this bridged island, known as Long Island. "Windermere Estates" leans against the widest part of Winnipesaukee. 

Dramatic lake and mountain views and serenity that comes from the surrounding woodlands and large expanse of lake.

The geography of the land at the end Windermere Estates is the shape of a mouth open and calling across the lake.  The name Windermere itself has the sound of a call or a beckon.  And for very good reason.  There is much about this part of the lake that is unique and wondrous.

The 107 Windermere Road Virtual Tour

shows the proximity to the lake of the main home, allowing for spectacular views.

 

 

Windermere Beach

Rather than recount what I consider magnificent about this part of the lake, I invite those interested in viewing my 107 Windermere listing, to tour this part of the lake by boat with me.  Why Not Experience Windermere for Yourself?

Ideal Winnipesaukee Offering at 107 Windermere

Privacy and the Potential for Many Waterfront Amenities.

Not only does 107 Windermere Road, Moultonborough offer spectacular beauty in one of Winnipesaukee's most classic and peaceful lakefront neighborhoods, this waterfront property has been reduced to $1,000,000 this past week. You have to tour first hand this part of the lake to appreciate this value.
 
 
The rectangular shaped parcel, 107 Windermere, is ideal. The waterfront is crystal clear and the angle of the shoreline gives you wonderful, pristine views in all directions. The roadside location of 107 Windermere is right across the street from a much larger parcel of land owned by Windermere Association.   Privacy and quality resonate in every aspect of this New Hampshire lake location.
 
 

2.2 Acre Land Parcel has 300 Feet of Waterfront and "Grandfathered" Proximity to the Lake.

This level, 2.2 acre lot has a long, sprawling 3 bedroom ranch home at water's edge.   Experience the sight of long lake and mountain views from this lot and you'll understand the lure of Long Island and its environs.  Rarely are such beautiful views right at your doorstep.   The sound of lapping water is just outside your windows.
 
 

3 Bedroom Home and 1 Bedroom Cottage are Currently on the Property.

The 3 bedrooms, living room, large den, and kitchen all have Lake Winnipesaukee's shoreline a few feet...or even less...outside the window.  Just a short ride on your jet ski can take you directly across the lake to Gilford NH amenities. Meredith and Center Harbor Bays are also just minutes away.  Why deal with road traffic when a boat ride can take you where you want to go?

Plenty of Room for an Extended Family to recreate at 107 Windermere Road.

Enjoy views past Ragged Island all the way across the lake to Rattlesnake Island.  This is an ideal  land parcel for a new construction home.  If privacy, central lake location, and end-of-Long-Island tranquility sound appealing, please call me to tour this property and this lake location.
 
107 Windermere's 300 ft. of waterfront is plenty of room for perched beach, large docking system, fire pit etc., subject to state and local permits.
 
This property might have particular appeal to those who would value a large guest cottage as part of their Winnipesaukee lake home.
 
Although the current guest cottage needs to be rebuilt, a grandfathered full guest cottage with kitchen, screen porch, living room, and kitchen of this size is rare on a single lot of record in Moultonborough.

One-of-a-Kind 110 Dock Includes an Island-Like Patio at NEW Listing 128 Veasey Shore, Meredith, NH

Idyllic Lot at 128 Veasey Was the First Waterfront Parcel on the Road to be Developed

Meredith, NH - As far as the "live-in" boathouse at 128 Veasey Shore Road, Meredith, it isn't hard to see why this location was selected to build the boathouse in 1929. One reason readily apparent to the eye, is the panoramic view from this Meredith NH location. From the house, views of the lake, stretching to Mount Chocorua are to the left, with Big Beaver Island lying low in the lake in front of you.  Off the the right, the long lake views to Wolfeboro are magnificent.

Natural Sugar Sand Beach

The sugar white sand of the beach stretches under the crystal clear waterfront to the left of the boathouse, and extends nearly as far as out as the 110 foot long permanent dock and island-like patio.

The island-like patio allows you to enjoy all day sun with water and lake views surrounding you....truly island-like!

The 1929, meticulously refurbished boathouse is one of only a few boathouses on Winnipesaukee with living space; it has a vaulted great room, 2 bedrooms, porch, kitchenette, dining room. Even 2 enormous fireplaces!  To the left of the boathouse is a large bank and slate walk-way leading to a running brook.  This are would be perfect to easily convert to an additional sand beach.  Privacy is afforded in this spot because of the protection of the boathouse.

High Quality Home by Premier Builder is a Terrific Value at this Price Point.

Why Veasey? Rare Shoreline of Veasey Offers Quiet Waters and Expansive Views.

Veasey Shore Road has long been sought after by those who seek quiet, tranquil water and 5-15 minute access to most Meredith and Center Harbor amenities.  The lake experience is fabulous ,with little boat traffic and no heavy West winds.

Why Build, when you can Find a Home at this Value? 

The 2003 built Cargill Blake home behind the boathouse is sited perfectly to capture the views on the quiet, but expansive waters, which make Veasey Shore unique on Winnipesaukee.

A Landscape Like No Other.

Many remarkable gardens, a gazebo, stone walkways, a white sugar sand beach, waterfall and koi pond. There is space for a tennis court on this 2.1 care lot. 7 bedrooms / 7.5 baths. Storage space above garage could be in-law apartment. With an Adirondack exterior and a traditional interior, this home should satisfy the most discriminating buyer. Located in a neighborhood of luxury homes, Veasey is also uniquely located to be near the Page Pond Conservation trails, Center Harbor Woods, and the Chamberlain Memorial Forest.
