Second floor has gorgeous living room with leather furniture, TV, and wood stove; dining room, working kitchen, and a full front deck overlooking miles of water and mountains.
This floor also has two bedrooms - one with a double-size bed and door to front deck, other bedroom has queen-size bed with door to separate deck in back of the house.

Lots of space so everyone can be together and still have privacy. Excellent for an extended family vacation any time of the year.

Why the Owner Chose Gilford
We live year-round in the Boston area. We have two sons 21 months apart. When they were young we wanted to go to a vacation spot within 2 hours from home and had 4 seasons of activity.
The Lakes Region has it all - fabulous Lake Winnipesaukee, hiking areas, Gunstock Mountain for skiing. When we decided to buy a house, we needed enough room for them to bring their friends and our relatives from all over the country could come and visit!
The Unique Benefits at this Chestnut Drive 4-Seasons House
So many benefits - the greatest is that there are four bedrooms - plenty of room for extended family to visit and old friends' reunion.
