Summary:
Timeless New England Farmhouse Escape
The Space:
Step into a bygone era at Ambrose House, a meticulously renovated historic residence exuding charm and timeless appeal. Nestled adjacent to the iconic Castle In The Clouds, and a stone's throw away from the pristine Lake Winnipesaukee—offering an array of aquatic adventures—it's ideally situated, just a short 20-minute drive to the bustling towns of Wolfeboro or Meredith.
As you arrive you're greeted by the warmth of beautiful wood beams and floors. The antique cooktop stove adds a touch of nostalgia to the modern kitchen, a perfect blend of past and present. The house boasts two distinct living areas, each telling its own unique story.
Downstairs, the main kitchen and dining area beckon, complete with a decorative propane heat stove and mini-split A/C to keep you comfortable year-round. A designated desk area, laundry facilities, and a cozy tea/coffee nook ensure you have everything you need. Revel in the 'purple room' with its exposed beams and inviting leather seating, or unwind in the sun-soaked enclosed porch.
The lower level also houses a full bathroom and a convenient half bathroom. For those seeking a bit of solitude, the 'blue room' offers a quiet sanctuary for reading or working, with a pull-out couch if needed. Practical amenities such as an iron, ironing board, clothes rack, and fans are tucked away in the closet.
The home has three bedrooms: on the lower level is a double bedroom, while upstairs, you'll find the main bedroom with a queen bed and beautiful views over the neighboring farm, and a charming twin bedroom. Each bedroom is equipped with a whisper-quiet window A/C unit, ensuring your comfort during warmer days
Inside the barn you will find a variety of lawn games, a fire pit for some outdoor fun on the back lawn, along with essential supplies neatly organized for your convenience. The fenced-in perennial garden to the side is perfect for leisurely strolls or grilling sessions on the deck, all while enjoying the company of your furry friends. The open back lawn area with a picnic table invites games, relaxation and al fresco dining, while the adjoining nearby wooded area provides an opportunity for a bit of exploration. Uncover the fascinating history of the region at the adjacent historic cemetery, dating back to the Revolutionary War.
There is driveway parking for several vehicles and, for the environmentally-conscious, a dedicated EV charger is available.
Ambrose House offers the perfect blend of history and modern amenities, enabling you to create lasting memories in a setting that seamlessly merges the past with the present, promising a truly unique and unforgettable stay.
