Lake Ashuelot Estates, Washington NH, New Hampshire: 2 year young 3 BR colonial home for sale in waterfront community at Lake Ashuelot, close to skiing (Pats Peak, Crotched Mountain ski areas), Manchester NH Airport (58 mi), Concord NH (New Hampshire state capital 44 mi) and Boston MA (106 mi).
This gated lakefront community of single family homes offers private beach, marina for excellent boating on 299.5 acre Lake Ashuelot (7 mile long Highland Lake is minutes away). Nearby towns of Keene, Peterborough and Henniker are well known for their art galleries, shops, restaurants and entertainment opportunities. Proximity of Franklin Pierce College, Keene State College and New England College increases real estate value in this area even more.
As you roll through the gates you know life is different here. Slower, more leisurely and relaxed: a lifestyle that used to be reserved for vacationers and tourist, now is becoming a way of every day life for the increasing number of permanent, year-round residents here.
A few minutes stroll from the sandy beach takes you to a two year young colonial; ready to accommodate you with three levels of living space, numerous updates and central air conditioning. As you enter the living room, a warmly purring wood stove will draw your attention. Its pipe disappears way up high into the cathedral ceiling, past the balcony of the third floor family/ TV room.
Space, air, windows everywhere. The kitchen, with a state of the art U-shaped design provides efficiency. Thanks to the open floor plan the chef will stay connected with the rest of the family while serving inviting meals on the peninsula.
The spacious master bedroom with full bath includes a jetted tub, his & her closets. The laundry with an extra half bath is on this level too.
In addition to two other bedrooms, there is also an office on first floor with separate entry. The house is freshly painted and in “ready to move in” condition.
This is a home where you can live comfortably, hike, ski, fish, skate, snowmobile right from your front door and enjoy all recreational activities year-round.
Yes, you could live where others vacation! (Seller is licensed real estate agent.)
