About this home
There’s something magical about this little lakeside cottage nestled on the quiet shores of Hermit Lake. Set on nearly ¾ of an acre, a winding wooded path and charming little bridge lead to your own private waterfront peninsula, complete with a NEW aluminum dock! Quite the spot for casting a line, paddling at sunset, enjoying a fun-filled day on the water, or gathering around the fire pit with family and friends. Inside, modern updates blend beautifully with cottage character. Brand new kitchen, full bath, hardwood and LVP flooring bring fresh style, comfort, and peace of mind, while thoughtful details like the butcher block island, new appliances, tiled tub/shower, and sliding barn door add a touch of warmth and class. The cozy deck, tucked beneath a canopy of trees, is perfect for morning coffee or evening dinners surrounded by nature. A BRAND-NEW SEPTIC SYSTEM recently installed, provides peace of mind for years to come. Renovated with care but still brimming with charm, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath retreat is ideal for year-round living, a private getaway, or continued Airbnb success. With the Lakes Region just under 20 minutes away, Gunstock Mountain about 30 minutes away, and snowmobile trails nearby, this is a true four-season haven where every day feels like a getaway!

Full-time residence, rental investment, or vacation home you will love this charming waterfront cottage on Hermit Lake. Upon arrival you will be tempted to check out the 125 ft. of owned waterfrontage but first plan to tour the cottage. While just under 700 sq. ft. this cottage does not disappoint. Enter to find the living area w/ knotty pine walls and pine wood floors, 2 modest bedrooms, ample size kitchen w/ great working space, small breakfast area with lg window to take in those gorgeous water views while sipping your morning coffee, space for laundry, full bath, and access to the large deck overlooking the water! Under the deck you will find the entrance to the dry full basement perfect for additional storage. Now it’s time to tour the true value of this property! You will enjoy the nice stroll to point (waterfront) via traveling down a set of stairs for a short walk to the wooden bridge where you will find much needed privacy, picnic area, firepit, water access, views, and a small dock. Hermit Lake has a 10 hp motor limit so you can enjoy the same peace and tranquility the neighbors do. The town beach is less than 1/2 mile away if you prefer to take your friends there rather than give up your space as you know they won’t want to leave! What more can you ask for, when living in the beautiful town of Sanbornton w/ short commute to major highways, shopping, restaurants, skiing, snowmobiling, walking trails, hiking and so much more!
