Tucked within the quiet charm of a mature apple orchard in Gilford, this refined newer construction home offers an inspired blend of artisanal craftsmanship and modern sophistication. Built by the award-winning Lakes Region Design Group. Just a short drive from the alpine trails of Gunstock Mountain Resort and the tranquil expanse of Lake Winnipesaukee, the setting is both pastoral and invigorating, a true haven. Timber Frame accents lend a sense of grace, their exposed Douglas Fir beams adding warmth to soaring interiors. The kitchen is outfitted with cutting-edge Miele appliances integrated into locally crafted cabinetry and stone surfaces. The main living space is open to the kitchen with a stunning, reclaimed-wood fireplace with gas insert. The first floor holds a primary suite for the most discerning of buyers with an opulent bathroom complete with private outdoor shower. The second floor is perfectly appointed with an open loft space, a shared bathroom, and two very large bedrooms, both with privacy and large closets. The lower level is a wonder of its own, with a custom tiled doggy shower, laundry, and ample closet space for all seasons of apparel; while a finished, two-car garage with epoxy flooring and workbench finishes off your wish list! Understated and exceptional, this home is a rare composition of craftsmanship and serene sophistication, an enduring sanctuary in one of New Hampshire's most storied landscapes. Being offered fully furnished.
