Located at the foothills of the White Mountains, Lake Winnipesaukee is New Hampshire’s largest lake, covering over 70 square miles and dotted with more than 350 islands. The name “Winnipesaukee” comes from the Abenaki people and means “beautiful water in a high place.”

Our clients — a young and active family of four based in Boston— came to us in search of a lakefront summer home that could serve as a seasonal retreat from the city. Where they landed was a wooded site with ideal southerly views of Lake Winnipesaukee, situated perfectly for New England, affording the opportunity to arrive from the North and then move towards the South as you walk through the home towards both the primary view and the sun.
