About this home
Transcend the bustle in this country Cape overlooking The Bay on the Blackwater River in scenic Andover, New Hampshire. Whether you're searching for a peaceful year-round residence or the perfect escape, this inviting home offers the best of New Hampshire's four-season lifestyle. Set on one-half acre, the property offers a manageable country setting with the practical advantage of easy year-round access and no long driveway to plow after a NH snowfall. Spend less time on maintenance and more time enjoying everything this beautiful location has to offer. Wake each morning in the spacious 2nd floor primary bedroom, where bench-dormered design frames south-facing views of the bay and its natural glory. The open 1st floor welcomes you with comfortable living space for everyday enjoyment. With newly refinished wood floors, a 1st floor bedroom and 3/4 bath offer the convenience of single-level living, while a bonus room provides flexibility as a home office, guest room, or hobby space. Step out onto the expansive rear deck for your morning coffee, to entertain family and friends, or sit and unwind. The walkout basement provides abundant space for toys and equipment. The dream of NH waterfront living without the tourists: paddle or row from your own shore, take a splash or cast a line. Located five min from the village of Andover, home of Proctor Academy, 30 minutes from the State Capitol in Concord, and 50 min from Manchester-Boston Regional Airport. Whether your vision is a cozy primary residence, or a place where weekends become lifelong memories, 405 Bay Road invites you to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience waterfront living on one of Central New Hampshire's hidden gems. For those seeking multi-gen living or the "families" retreat, this home’s neighboring 411 Bay Road is also available now at MLS# 530546 from the same owner. Please conduct your own due diligence on dimensions, insurance, lot lines, etc.
