Your Own Private Resort — Where Everyday Living Becomes a Celebration. Imagine fall evenings gathered around a crackling fire pit, laughter drifting across this extended lot with a magical fenced in backyard. The sparkling heated in-ground pool just steps from your gazebo will soon be ready for winter. Here, life feels like a getaway, and every season brings another reason to gather, relax, and make memories. From poolside afternoons and evenings in the jacuzzi to intimate dinners prepared on the piped-in gas grill, this extraordinary property was made for entertaining. Step inside, where a spacious foyer sets the stage for a home equally suited to elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living. A versatile salon or private office sits to the right, while the soaring dining room flows into a welcoming gathering area and chef-inspired kitchen featuring stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a generous center island. The full-length living room, warmed by a gas fireplace, offers the perfect place to unwind. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite feels like a retreat of its own, complete with an en-suite bath featuring a walk-in shower, an enormous walk-in closet/ dressing room. Three additional bedrooms and a half bath complete the home's four-bedroom, 2.5-bath layout. Need room for hobbies, fitness, or projects? The basement offers space and storage while the walk-up attic provides valuable storage potential too. Beyond the home, your private outdoor sanctuary awaits. Swim beneath the summer sun, dine on the deck, sit in the screened gazebo, soak in the jacuzzi, or settle beside the fire pit as the evening sky unfolds. Forest Lake is just down the street, and nearby conservation trails invite you to explore the natural beauty surrounding you. With exceptional indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, room to spread out, and a setting that inspires you to slow down and savor life, this is more than a home—it's an opportunity to create the lifestyle you've been dreaming about. A full house generator provides convenience. Close to tax-free shopping in Nh, this location is greatly desired. Some homes simply check the boxes. This is the kind of home that makes you imagine the life you could live here. Come experience it for yourself!
The West End, located between the Merrimack River and downtown Lawrence, is a residential and industrial Methuen neighborhood with mill-era streetscapes and river-adjacent views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Route 28 corridor near the I-495 ramps, where auto shops, small storefronts, and working warehouses set a brisk, utilitarian rhythm. Brick multifamily blocks and compact side streets mix with light-industrial buildings and rail-adjacent lots. Riverfront edges and nearby parks shape a walk-and-pause routine along the water. Local staples such as Heav’nly Donuts, The Loop Shopping Center, and Methuen Memorial Music Hall anchor everyday errands and community culture.
