22 Holman StreetLaconia, NH 03246Price: $550,000

Holman Street is the kind of Laconia street people slow down for, with sidewalks and old maples that turn golden yellow every Fall. Set on a level 0.28-acre lot, this 1922 white Colonial with its red front door and covered front porch has watched a century of neighbors pass by on their way downtown. Mornings start on the porch with a cup of coffee while the street wakes up. Inside, hardwood floors lead to a living room complete with a fireplace, currently being used as an office, and a formal dining room where holiday dinners have room to spread out. The inviting white kitchen retains its charming vintage character and flows into a sunny, window-lined space that leads to the back deck, making it an ideal spot for morning coffee, a cozy reading nook, or showcasing your favorite plants. Just beyond the kitchen, a few steps lead to the oversized family room, with the added convenience of a full bathroom nearby. The second floor holds three bedrooms with one additional room, a full bathroom, and access to your walk-up attic. A full basement with laundry and a workshop (plus two storage rooms), and an attached two-car garage with direct entry give every bike, kayak and holiday box a place to live. Out back, the deck overlooks a deep, level yard framed by maples and lined with a white picket fence, with room for a garden or a fire pit on a cool evening. Mini-split cooling, town water and sewer, and a generator handle the practical side of this home, making maintenance a breeze. Sidewalks lead toward downtown Laconia, where dinner out, a show at the Colonial Theatre and evenings along the river are only minutes from the front door, with Lake Winnipesaukee and Gunstock a short drive away. A house with a long story, on a street that makes it easy to write the next chapter. Don't miss this opportunity to make your next home here!
