About this property

MIRROR LAKE WATERFRONT - Welcome to "Holiday Hill," a classic turn-of-the-century Victorian offering nearly 3,000 square feet of living space on a large two-acre lot with its own private waterfront on beautiful Mirror Lake. Built in 1900, the home has been thoughtfully improved over the years while retaining the original character that makes the home special, including hardwood floors, distinctive woodwork and architectural details. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless-steel appliances and recessed lighting, while updated baths and central air conditioning add modern-day comfort. With four bedrooms, PLUS TWO BONUS ROOMS and 2.5 baths, there is plenty of room to gather family and friends at the lake. Outside, the covered wraparound porch is an inviting place to settle in and relax, while the rear deck looks out over a gently rolling lawn with plenty of room for yard games, cookouts and summer afternoons that stretch into the evening. A gentle path leads from the lawn, across a shared right-of-way, to approximately 60 feet of private frontage on Mirror Lake, with sandy bottom swimming and a seasonal dock. And the location makes it easy to enjoy the rest of the Lakes Region, too. Downtown Wolfeboro is less than 10 minutes away, and a public boat launch on Lake Winnipesaukee is just a few minutes down the road. Whether you spend the day on Mirror Lake, head into Wolfeboro for dinner, or launch the boat on Winnipesaukee, Holiday Hill puts a lot of what makes this area special within easy reach. The property also has a strong vacation rental history, with financial information available upon request. Offered mostly furnished! Shown by appointment only, please.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
