Why they chose this property
SITUATED OFF OF ROUTE 11D ON ONE OF THE SMALL PRIVATE ROADS, WINDSWEPT COTTAGE IS THE SECOND TO LAST HOME ON A DEAD END STREET OFFERING A PRETTY QUIET SPOT - OVERLOOKING LAKE WINNIPESAUKEE GIVES YOU AN AMAZING VANTAGE POINT OF 'THE BIG LAKE' ALL WHILE BEING SO CLOSE TO EVERYTHING.

What makes this property unique
WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE THIS HISTORIC COTTAGE RIGHT IN ALTON BAY. WINDSWEPT COTTAGE WAS THE ORIGINAL GUEST HOUSE OF THE GLIDDEN PAINT FAMILY - SUBDIVIDED YEARS AGO WHEN WATSON POINT WAS DEVELOPED, WINDSWEPT IS ITS OWN STAND ALONE HOME OFFERING ITS GUESTS AMAZING SUN DURING THE DAY AND THE MOST AMAZING SUNSETS IN THE EVENINGS FACING MOUMT MAJOR TO THE LEFT AND LITTLE MARK. THIS HOME HAS BEEN COMPLETELY RENOVATED SO WHILE WE HAVE MADE IT VERY WELCOMING, COZY, CLEAN IT ALSO HAS A MODERN KITCHEN - FULL HEATING SYSTEM AND CENTRAL AIR. BASIC LOCAL TV AND INTERNET HAVE BEEN ADDED SO YOU HAVE - BUT TRY TO DISCONNECT A LITTLE AND ENJOY THE PEACE THAT WINDSWEPT COTTAGE OFFERS. WE HOPE YOU LOVE IT AS MUCH AS THE ORIGINAL FAMILY, OUR FAMILY AND OUR GUESTS HAVE.
