Upstairs over the garage, there is a huge bonus room that’s the perfect place for a billiard table or home entertainment center. You may never see the kids again. Just through a set of French doors is another room that could be utilized as an office, den, or just a comfortable spot to read a book. For convenience, this level also has a beautiful three quarter bath so you won’t have to run downstairs.

Warm comfort and great views...On the lower walk out level there’s a spacious family room with a gas fireplace, three more ample size bedrooms for family or guests, and a full bath.

While many of the quality and custom features in this home may be readily apparent, there are some special enhancements that may not be noticed and that are worthy of special note.

A rustic cabin will also be built to provide storage for your waterfront toys or provisions.
 

Windover Farm was conceived and constructed by the premiere NH home builder, H.J. Stabile and Sons, to exacting standards and with an eye for style and quality that can only be achieved through the construction of over 3,500 homes and condominiums throughout the region.

This property is what dreams are made of and where many special memories will be made. From the anticipation of a flowering spring, to lazy summer days on the water or at the shore, viewing autumn colored panoramas, to winter cross country skiing and skating parties, every moment here will be unforgettable. This could be the stunning horse farm, secluded retreat, a perfect place to raise your children, or the retirement home you have always wanted.

All your dreams are possible at Windover Farm.

Historic Vacation Home in the Lakes Region

Saturday, April 16th, 2011

Looking for a truly unique vacation home, summer retreat, or possible business in the Lakes Region of NH?

“Fernside” is one of the oldest homes in the historic section of The Weirs. Built in 1889 byJasper & Mary Avery, Fernside remained in the same family and was operated as a guest house until November 2007 when great granddaughter, Beth Lavertue died at the age of 88. After her passing, this remarkable old inn was painstakingly and lovingly restored to its former glory, evoking the charm and simplicity of a by-gone era.

Beth had many stories to tell about growing up around her great grandmother, Gram (Mary) Avery and grandmother, Rose Avery. They were hard working women who tended to the home and were great cooks using fresh foods from the garden and bartering for milk or eggs and other sundries as needed. The guests at Fernside were well fed. Life was much simpler, but was much harder than we imagine. The history of this home and its owners is displayed throughout the home with pictures and maps which add to the charm and atmosphere of this remarkable property.

There are six charming bedrooms, a bath complete with a claw foot tub, a sparkling kitchen, dining room, den, and a parlor for evening storytelling. But the best yarns will probably be heard on the wrap around porch with views of Winnipesaukee. The lovely yard features perennial gardens and flowering bushes.

This wonderful home is located in the heart of the Lakes Region and within a short distance to all Lakes Region attractions, restaurants, and activities. There are plenty of exciting things to do, but you will probably find yourself enjoying the simpler things of times gone by like sitting on the porch watching the boats go by, reading a book,  or perhaps playing a board game in the parlor. This home has that kind of affect on you…

The property is located in the commercial resort zone which would allow various business opportunities for a new owner and the front porch is the perfect place to plan your new venture. Schedule an appointment to visit Fernside soon…
