About this home

Timeless 1955 Walkout Ranch | 3 Acres | Views | Gilford, NH Some homes are simply built. This one was crafted — and seven decades later, it still shows. Tucked into 3 private acres in one of Gilford's most desirable settings, this 1955 walkout ranch was the work of one of the region's most respected builders, a name synonymous with quality in an era when homes were made to last. From the moment you arrive, the difference is unmistakable: solid construction, thoughtful proportions, and the kind of enduring character that simply can't be replicated in today's new builds. Inside, the home tells its story through original details that have only grown more rare with time. Gorgeous fieldstone floors anchor the living spaces with warmth and texture, while not one but two fireplaces invite you to slow down — perfect for crisp New Hampshire mornings and quiet winter evenings. A screened sun porch extends your living space into the outdoors, offering a shaded retreat for summer dinners, morning coffee, or simply taking in the mountain views that frame the property. The full walkout lower level opens the door to possibility — ideal for an in-law apartment, guest suite, home office, studio, or expanded living space tailored to the way you live. With 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, the home offers comfortable, flexible space, while modern essentials including town sewer and a drilled well provide a practical foundation for the future. And then there's the land. Three private acres offer room to breathe, garden, expand, or simply enjoy the natural beauty of the Lakes Region — all within Gilford's exceptional, top-rated school district and just minutes from Lake Winnipesaukee, Gunstock Mountain Resort, shopping, and dining. Yes, the home is original and untouched — and that is precisely its opportunity. This is a rare canvas for the right buyer: someone with vision who values authentic character over cookie-cutter convenience, and who understands that homes of this pedigree.
