Property Description

Conveniently located right into the heart of downtown Alton, this freshly renovated contemporary blends character, flexibility, and Lakes Region lifestyle in all the right ways. Cathedral ceilings, skylights, and exposed beams create an airy, inviting feel, while the porch overlooking the downtown activity offers the perfect place to sip coffee and take in the energy of the village. The finished basement den adds bonus living space ideal for movie nights, a home office, or guest overflow, and the patio area offers a private space for outdoor entertaining. The oversized garage outbuilding opens the door to endless possibilities, whether you're storing cars, boats, and toys, running a home business, or dreaming bigger with the residential/commercial zoning. Above, the fully gutted upper level is a blank canvas with septic design already completed, ready for a future guest suite, game room, studio, or potential rental opportunity. Just minutes to Alton Bay marinas, the public beach, boat launch, restaurants, and shopping, with an easy commute toward the Seacoast, this property offers the rare combination of downtown convenience, flexible space, and year-round recreation.
