This is a newly constructed Architect's home, reminiscent of a New England farmhouse, with a mesmerizing view of Lake Winnipesaukee. The view is south to Gunstock Mountain. The waterfront has a low stone wall and a sandy bottom with crystal clear water. The dock is U shaped with a nice wooden deck area for sitting and plenty of room for water sports. There is a firepit near the waters edge for toasting marshmellow and watching the moon rise.
The over sized screened porch with adjacent stone terrace provide ample opportunity for lounging and leisurely family meals. The family room has french doors to the terrace with a cozy fireplace and game table. The country kitchen/ dining area is flooded with light from the skylights and features an over sized granite island and 6 burner Viking range.
The living room has a home theater with a flat screen TV. The library has a sleeper sofa for overflow guests and there is a full bath on the first floor as well.
The second floor has a master suite with a marble bath and sitting area and two other bedrooms with baths and queen beds. There is also an over sized bonus room with 3 twin beds and 2 trundle beds. This room is a child's delight- with bright colors and a cozy play area.
The bedroom views overlooking the lake are truly special. The home is decorated with designer touches including antique and new furniture.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2009
We fell in love with this area when we drove through the pretty town of Meredith a couple of years ago. We decided to look a little more deeply and rented a home in Cummings Cove on Lake Winnipesaukee with our family. After spending the week there we knew it was a special place. The combination of the fabulous views and protected swimming and kayaking areas was just what we were looking for. It is also convenient to town. We love the local hiking up steep granite faces of the surrounding mountains. These trails provide amazing views of Winnipesaukee and Squam Lakes. There is so much to do in the area - we just can't get enough.
The Unique Benefits of this House
We have four kayaks available to explore the area. There is a preserved island (Stonedam Island) a short paddle away that offers hiking and nature trails.

Heaven on the Lake

Review Submitted: 12/01/11
An amazingly beautiful home in a perfect location. We thoroughly enjoyed our July 4th week. The kayaks were a wonderful plus and were used every day. The fully equipped kitchen was heaven for our three families who love to cook. Scary when your vacation kitchen is better equipped than the one you left at home! Plenty of space for all of us.... three adults, three kids and one infant. Even no problems accommodating a multitude of our local relatives came to visit for a day of feasting and music! The kids (ages 5, 11 and 13) all loved the "bunk room", while the baby slept in his port-a-crib with mom and dad in the secluded and lavish master suite. The cove location provided a welcome separation from the lake's boat traffic. The loons were plentiful! But I learned the hard way that you have to be quite careful maneuvering your power boat through the rocks in the cove before you get out to open waters. Ah well, even the boat repair costs were worth it... almost! Thanks so much Cathy & Don... We'll be back! Warmest regards, Sam

We found this beautiful home on the Internet while trying to decide if we could bring our children and grandchildren to Lake Winnipesaukee for a family vacation. The location was perfect--a nice quiet cove but near charming downtown Meredith. The home was equipped with many extras--kayaks and life jackets, a dinghy for fishing, a Viking gas stove, an on-porch propane grill, etc. We thouroughly enjoyed our stay. The property and location exceeded our expectations.

What an incredible home. It was a treat for us to stay in such a finely crafted home. Its luxurious, comfortable and very relaxing. The design takes advantage of the spectacular lake view and everything you could ever need was thought of. Great Job! Thanks Cathy & Don, for sharing your fanastic retreat.

"Our week was just great. My husband did have to work the first half of the week but he camped out at the desk in the master bedroom and still had that beautiful view, I don't mean to gush but we loved your house so much. We have rented houses up and down the east coast and in the Caribbean and we all voted yours the best, most suited to our family."

Wow... we so enjoyed our stay here! What an absolutely beautiful home! We have loved every moment of it. This house is exquisite with the beautiful paint colors, the granite and marble, the polished nickel, and all the gorgeous moldings and details. You did not skimp on anything. We are so thankful and blessed you have shared your home with us. We had a wonderful time. The location and property are amazing! We are ready to book for next year!
