- Description: Nestled on nearly two wooded acres in the heart of Barnstead, 16 Douglas Drive offers a distinct architectural experience with deeded rights to Lower Suncook Lake. This residence is characterized by its bold vertical design, wrap-around lattice decking, and a variety of geometric windows that perfectly frame the surrounding forest. Step inside to discover an expansive vaulted living hall where deep red walls contrast beautifully with warm natural wood-plank ceilings. This dramatic space is flooded with sunlight through multiple viewing windows and a sliding glass door leading to the deck. For ultimate convenience, the home is equipped with a mechanical lift that services multiple levels directly from the integrated one-car garage, making the transport of heavy items a breeze. The kitchen provides a functional hub with earthy-toned cabinets, granite prep surfaces, and a substantial breakfast island. The home's versatile layout includes a restful bedroom featuring a magnificent full-height fieldstone fireplace, adding a touch of rustic elegance to the living quarters. Upstairs, a brightly lit loft overlooks the main floor, offering a tranquil spot for relaxation under a large skylight. Outdoor enjoyment is guaranteed with a screened porch and a large sun deck, ideal for taking in the fresh New Hampshire air. The property also includes a built-in workshop area in the lower level and a separate storage building for outdoor equipment. While some areas await your personal finishing touches, the unique craftsmanship and prime location near a sandy public beach make this a truly standout opportunity.
