The main floor has an open kitchen with granite tops and island, dining area, living room, small built-in desk, washer/dryer and bathroom.

The central staircase leads upstairs to a master bedroom and second bedroom with shared full shower room.

On the ground floor walk out level is a guest bedroom with closet, utility room and full bath.

This home uses the technologies of geothermal systems to take advantage of the earths natural resources to consistently and efficiently heat and cool the home.

Beautiful, well maintained property that provided a lovely location for our family get together. Secluded enough to give nice privacy, the home was easy driving to Concord and the lakes region. The host was very friendly and great to work with.

Linda and her family are the perfect guests, especially as closing of the season guests. The house was immaculate and made our transition back in much easier. Thank you, Linda. You are welcome any time

Wonderful open living space for family gatherings. Host is easy to reach with great communication. Quiet area that was very relaxing. We delighted in watching the birds visiting the bird feeder just outside the kitchen window.

This house was on a beautiful property. Loved all the greenery. The house was super clean and comfortable. My husband and I, aling with 3 grown boys enjoyed our stay. It was close to family in Concord, Portsmouth, and many restaurants.

Come for the Privacy - Stay for the Birds!

The property is beautiful inside and out and includes all the basics you might need except food and a toothbrush. It's close to services but far enough away to feel secluded. If you download the Merlin Bird ID app, you can sit on the deck, watch the birds, and have the app identify them by their call. This house can sleep 6 adults and is definitely the best Vrbo around!
