Tucked away at the end of a quiet, dead-end drive, this custom-built home offers privacy, presence, and exceptional outdoor living just over a mile from Route 16. A paved driveway leads past a thoughtfully designed collection of mature perennials, reflecting the work of a professional landscape designer and setting the tone for the property. A wrap-around porch, anchored by a stately spruce, creates a welcoming first impression. Inside, the mudroom serves as a functional hub with access to the heated attached garage, a 3/4 bath, and a studio apartment above. The kitchen sits at the heart of the home, featuring warm wood countertops, a central island, and a charming breakfast nook, with an easy flow into the bright family room. The dining room captures views of the surrounding yard, while a spacious office offers flexibility as a potential first-floor bedroom. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms and two full baths provide comfortable accommodations, including one with a relaxing jacuzzi tub. A bonus room above the garage connects seamlessly, creating a practical and flowing layout. Additional features include a full basement for storage, a fully functional irrigation system, and access to fiber internet. The back patio offers a private setting for relaxing or entertaining. Located in the desirable Chocorua Meadows community, residents enjoy access to a heated in-ground pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and community water. Just minutes away, Chocorua Lake offers a beautiful setting for paddling, swimming, and taking in mountain views. *OPEN HOUSE on Mother's Day, May 10th from 12 to 3pm!*
