Step back in time and discover a property filled with charm, character, and endless possibilities! Nestled on five acres within the desirable Ridge Association, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare opportunity to bring new life to a piece of history. The home has been completely cleared out and features three spacious rooms on the main level, including an oversized kitchen, living room, and bedroom, along with an expansive attached barn offering incredible potential. An old stone foundation tucked away on the property adds another layer of intrigue and a glimpse into its storied past. Conveniently situated near the entrance to the association, the property enjoys a peaceful setting without being far from the main road. Perhaps one of its greatest features is access to beautiful 704 acre Balch Lake, spanning the Maine and New Hampshire border. Ridge Association members enjoy access to an exceptional sandy beach with approximately 870 feet of water frontage, along with rights to half of a dock! Whether you're drawn to the property's history, envision a thoughtful restoration, or are simply looking for five acres with access to one of the area's most beautiful lakes, the possibilities here are truly exciting. All within reach of North Conway, Portland, Portsmouth, and Boston, making this a wonderful opportunity to create your own special retreat. The property is currently without water, electricity, or heat, offering a blank canvas for those ready to embrace its potential.
