Rare opportunities like this don't come along often. Set on 2.65 beautifully landscaped acres in the heart of Newbury, this one-of-a-kind property offers two distinctly different homes that create an unmatched Lake Sunapee lifestyle. The year-round chalet serves as the primary residence, offering comfortable everyday living with an open-concept floor plan, vaulted ceilings, a spacious kitchen with island, bedroom, office, 1 1/2 baths, central air conditioning, wood and gas stoves, generator readiness, and a two-car garage with room for your boat and outdoor gear. Just beyond sits the property's true treasure. An authentic early-1900s seasonal log cabin that has been lovingly cared for by the same family for generations. Rich with character, the cabin features exposed log walls, a stunning stone fireplace, two bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, charming kitchen, and an inviting screened porch where you can relax with views toward Lake Sunapee while surrounded by spectacular perennial gardens. Whether you're looking for a private family compound, a multigenerational retreat, a place to host guests, or simply a property unlike anything else on the market, this estate offers remarkable flexibility. Backing directly to nearly 1,800 acres of Mt. Sunapee State Park, you'll enjoy immediate access to hiking, skiing, mountain biking, and year-round recreation. Walk to Newbury Harbor, the town beach, boat docks, restaurants, and enjoy all that Lake Sunapee has to offer, while returning home to your own peaceful retreat tucked among mature trees and beautifully maintained grounds. Properties that combine history, privacy, modern comfort, and an authentic Lake Sunapee lifestyle are exceptionally difficult to find. This is more than a home. It's a legacy property waiting for its next chapter.
