1.51+/- acres. Some houses are simply a place to live. Others become the place everyone wants to gather. Set on a sought-after scenic byway of Wells Road, this distinctly funky Franconia Chalet has personality in spades and a layout that invites you to settle in, spread out, and stay awhile. This is not your cookie cutter mountain house. Three separate, meandering levels create a wonderfully unconventional flow, with unexpected nooks, multiple living spaces, a den, a game room, and plenty of room to disappear with a book or pack the house with friends and family. There is a serious sleeping capacity for those weekends when “just a few people” somehow turns into a crowd. A wood stove adds the cozy factor, while the dedicated ski tuning room says this house knows exactly where it lives. And the LOCATION: step outside and find miles of biking, hiking, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing on the Franconia Area NEMBA Trails, literally right at your doorstep. Cannon Mountain is just minutes up the road, and Ammonoosuc Conservation Trust land is close by for even more exploring. Franconia is the kind of community that makes mountain living feel authentic. A town that is active, welcoming, and connected to the outdoors, with Franconia Notch State Park practically part of the backyard. The 3 car garage has room for vehicles, bikes, skis, and all the toys that come with a life you'll live here in the mountains. Quirky? Absolutely. Comfortable? Definitely. Practical in all the ways that matter, with just enough unexpected charm to make it memorable. This is a mountain house with a personality and a place that feels ready for the next chapter for your family and friends. Some furnishings are included.
