About This Home
Located along Kearsarge Road in North Conway, the historic Isaac Merrill House offers a rare blend of Mount Washington Valley history and future opportunity.

Just minutes from Cranmore Mountain, Story Land, Schouler Park, and North Conway Village, the location places residents and guests in the center of the valley’s year-round recreation and activity. For a future owner, the property offers flexibility. Continue the current extended-stay rental model, or explore the possibility of reestablishing the building as a bed & breakfast.
