Old-world charm meets modern convenience in the heart of the Lakes Region. Built in 1850 and held by the same family for two decades, this home keeps the details that can't be replicated - pressed tin ceilings and elegant original woodwork - while nearly every system behind them has been brought up to date. A covered front porch opens to a comfortable six-room layout with two bedrooms and a full bath. A flexible bonus room adds guest sleeping space, a home office, or a quiet retreat, and the full concrete basement offers workshop and storage room. What sets this one apart is the record of care - more than $82,300 in documented improvements. A brand-new natural gas furnace was installed in 2026. The steel roof dates to 2018 and the siding to 2005, and the replacement windows carry a warranty that transfers to the buyer. Flooring is all new in 2023 and 2026, the shower was rebuilt in 2020, and the chimney, liner, and electrical panel were all updated that same year. Whole-house insulation, a 2023 hot water heater, duct and vent cleaning, and a tarred driveway round out the list. Two natural gas backup stoves - one on the main floor, one in the basement - plus generator wiring keep the house warm and lit through a Lakes Region storm. Public water and sewer, natural gas heat, and an easy-care corner lot make for low-maintenance ownership. Downtown Laconia's restaurants, shops, and the Colonial Theatre are minutes away, with the WOW Trail, Opechee Bay, and Weirs Beach on Lake Winnipesaukee all close at hand. Turnkey for a first-time buyer, a right-sizer, or an investor - the big-ticket items are already handled.
