"Wildair". Built in 1928, the era of families gathering at expansive summer residences to enjoy each other's company and to commune with nature, this quintessential shingled seasonal residence of 5 bedrooms with boathouse has been cherished by members of the same family for nearly 100 years. It features over 687 feet of frontage on deep water, 781 acre Nubanusit Lake, the premiere lake in Southern New Hampshire. Much of its shoreland is protected by conservation easements or ownership, as is this property's 25.1 acres. The last house on a privacy ensuring, mile long, seasonal driveway shared by 5 owners. the property is an oasis of peace. Live outside on the 12' x 47' + 12' x 18' wraparound screened porch. Gather the family in the 29' living room in front of the massive wood burning hearth (the chimney was serviced this spring) for game night and story telling. Around the corner is an office for staying connected -- the property has high speed internet! There's room for everyone around the dining room table in front of a scond fireplace and viewing the lake through the screened porch. A butler's pantry with sink and dishwasher connects to the kitchen. In place but no longer used are the Genwwod Wood cookstove and the old wooden front ice boxes. The soapstone sink, wood countertops and built in hutch are in use. Off the back hall is a utility room, shower bath, and sleeping porch. Upstairs are two primary bedrooms, three twin bedded rooms and a hall bath. Each bedroom has its own sink! Electrical service, plumbing and the septic sytem were updated 25-30 years ago. Water is from the lake. The boathouse at the water's edge has a rec room or overflow sleeping space on the second floor. Storage for boats and outdoor accessories are on the ground floor, which opens to a huge top deck surrounded by a lower deck for swimming and boat launching. Outbuildings include a woodshed and a former ice house, now used for storage. Be Wildair's next stewards.
