DESCRIPTION
-
Welcome to Whimsy Cottage, a 1920s cottage in Elkins, meticulously maintained with 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, offering warmth and character throughout. Inside, there is an inviting interior with beautiful woodwork and an abundance of windows that fill the home with natural light and bring the outdoors in. The living room was added onto the original cottage, creating a bright and airy gathering space. The main level also has a nice dining area and a bright kitchen. The second level offers two bedrooms and a full bathroom, while the partially finished lower level includes a third bedroom, laundry area, and half bathroom.The partially fenced backyard is perfect for outdoor enjoyment, with a patio, a screened gazebo with electricity, and a shed for gardening tools and recreational gear. The property features a beautiful native New Hampshire flowering meadow designed to attract pollinators. Originally part of the historic "Pleasant Lake Cottages" when the Elkins Post Office was a restaurant and the cabins dotted Elkins Beach, this cottage is now located near the beach, preserving its nostalgic lakeside roots. The home has been thoughtfully updated for modern comfort, including updated kitchen appliances and bathroom fixtures, mini-split systems for heating, cooling, and dehumidifying, a new drilled well, updated electrical system, and a whole house dehumidifier. A Rinnai propane heater and a charming tiny woodstove provide additional warmth. The location is ideal for outdoor and nature enthusiasts, with nearby skiing, cross-country skiing, and hiking trails. The 5.6 mile Pleasant Lake loop is right out the front door for hiking and biking. Pleasant Lake is just minutes away, perfect for fishing, kayaking, and boating, with a boat ramp 3 minutes from the property. Close to downtown New London for local dining, shops, cafes, healthcare, and summer theater. Easy access to I-89, and just 45 minutes to either Concord or the Upper Valley. *Showings begin May 29th, from 4-6.
