- Description: Built in 1858, this classic New England Cape sits in the heart of one of New Hampshire's most beloved small towns. Meticulously restored, the original bones - wide-plank hardwood floors, rooms with real character and plenty of natural light - have been honored and preserved to blend seamlessly with modern updates: completely updated kitchen with brand new appliances and cabinetry, renovated full bathroom with new washer & dryer, upstairs half-bath added in 2025, updated electrical, new asphalt shingle roof (to complement the existing standing seam), and a new deck to lounge and dine outdoors. The work has been done thoughtfully, so you can simply move in and begin living like a local. Take a morning walk to The Bend at Sugar River, Sunapee's beloved cafe, for a latte and something warm before the day begins. In summer, explore Sunapee Harbor - with its restaurants, shops, and public boat launch - or head to Dewey Beach to take a dip in Lake Sunapee's pristine waters; both are just minutes away. Come winter, Mount Sunapee Ski Resort is close enough to get in a few runs before the crowds arrive and the lifts get busy. This four-season home offers a flexible floorplan to accommodate modern living. Two bedrooms are upstairs, and one bedroom is on the main level, making single-level living possible. Working from home? Set up your workspace in the office at the front of the house or, if preferred, the light-drenched sunroom. Plenty of space for gardening and outdoor relaxation on your level, 1.1 acre lot. Welcome to Sunapee!
