About This Home
Tucked behind a charming Victorian-era fence, The Beede Estate on Granite Hill offers a rare blend of history, beauty, and proximity to all that downtown Meredith has to offer. Built in 1867 by merchant and civic leader John Way Beede, this striking Italianate home stands as one of the finest examples of its kind in New Hampshire. Its impressive exterior features hallmark period details: an octagonal cupola with arched windows, ornate corbelled chimneys, corner quoining, and a gracious front veranda with decorative brackets. Inside, original craftsmanship shines through untouched woodwork, lofty ceilings, and hand-carved balusters along the sweeping staircase. Historic glass windows, hardwood floors, and detailed moldings reflect timeless character throughout the home. The wraparound yard feels like a hidden garden, offering a spacious deck, gazebo, and porch - an ideal setting to relax and enjoy the gentle chime of nearby church bells. Moments from Lake Winnipesaukee's public boat ramp, boutique shops, restaurants, and year-round activity, this home pairs timeless beauty with everyday convenience. A private in-law suite above the garage adds flexibility for guests or additional living space. Town water and sewer, and the potential to purchase the neighboring carriage house, make this a truly unique opportunity in Meredith. A perfect blend of historic charm and modern functionality, The Beede Estate is ready to be cherished for generations to come.
