Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a seasonal waterfront cottage on beautiful Halfmoon Lake in Barnstead. Nestled among the trees with privacy and shade, this Cape offers direct lake frontage, a gently sloping lot, and a sandy beach just steps from your door. The cottage features an open-concept living area with vaulted wood ceilings, large lake-facing windows, and a charming kitchen with updated flooring, vintage-style cabinets, and newer appliances. A second living space is partially finished, offering great potential to expand. The open loft upstairs provides flexible space for sleeping or storage.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
