About This Home
Seasonal Pondfront Cottage on Upper Pratt Pond — a rare opportunity to own one of the few remaining true New Hampshire camp-style retreats. This property has been lovingly enjoyed by the same family for over 21 years, and they hope the next owner will cherish it just as much. Set above the 35 acres of tranquil pond, the cottage welcomes you with the sound of a seasonal babbling brook. Follow the path down the hill, cross the charming footbridge, and arrive at a spacious waterside deck with access to both the 10x12 screened room and a slider to enter the cottage. Inside, the cabin glows with rustic character — pine interior, log-style open rafters, and an open living room–kitchen layout that frames peaceful water views. The updated bathroom, two bedrooms, and storage area below (including an old electric sauna space) make this an ideal seasonal getaway. Wake up to sunrises over the pond, spend your hot days on the dock and floating swim platform, and enjoy the timeless simplicity of lakeside living. Properties like this rarely come to market. Showings begin May 28th Open House May 30th 10am -1pm (parking is limited do not block road)
