Waterfront home recently renovated and waiting for you! Located on Big Pea Porridge Pond in Madison, NH you will find this charming 2 bedroom 1 bath saltbox style vacation home with sleeping for up to 5 people. Enjoy the great open concept kitchen and living area with slider doors that lead out to the large deck and level back yard. Also on the main level is a full bath and washer and dryer in the kitchen. The second level of this home includes a bedroom with queen bed (sleeps 2) and a bedroom with twin bed and twin bunk beds (sleeps 3). This is a beautiful vacation home, but the main feature to this house is the spectacular “lakeside” deck! Picture relaxing on the deck and listening to the loons on the lake with your morning coffee. This is certainly a see it to believe it kind of property!
Check-In: Will take place at a local Real Estate office any time after 4:00pm – Specific instructions and addresses will be emailed upon booking confirmation
Amenities include: Dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, DVD player, standard 12 cup coffee maker, *mini split air conditioning*, cable TV, internet, gas fireplace, 2 kayaks, canoe, propane grill, picnic table and outdoor propane fire pit.

***STEEP STEPS TO LAKESIDE***
MAIN LEVEL: Kitchen, living room, bathroom and laundry.
SECOND LEVEL: Bedroom with queen bed (sleeps 2) and bedroom with twin and twin bunk bed (sleeps 3).
***Owner's Description of Waterfront***
"The highlight of the water frontage is the large deck, right at the water's edge and with a beautiful view across the pond.
There is a fairly flat area adjacent to the deck, but it is not sandy. Depending on the water level, there is sometimes a small sandy area at this lower level. Going straight out, the slope is gradual and sandy for maybe 25ft, then it becomes more muddy underfoot. On either side of the sandy area, reeds and lilies grow up in the Summer. So there is an area of lake that is sandy underfoot, maybe 10ft wide and stretching about 25 ft into the lake, depending on the water level you could swim out from there.
We have a 20ft long dock (summer only) which is good for fishing, or sunbathing when the deck is in shade. The water is not deep enough to dive from the dock. The water is about 3ft deep at the end of the dock, depending on lake level.
WE DO NOT HAVE A SWIM DOCK. There is an association swim dock nearby, maybe a 100yd swim or kayak away, that visitors are welcome to use (summer only).”
