Lake life without the lakefront price tag, or the HOA fees! Welcome to 26 Ells Road in Hampstead, where your next adventure is just steps away! This beautifully renovated Gambrel offers 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, all just across the street from a private sandy beach and boat launch with access to Wash Pond! Whether you're spending your mornings kayaking, afternoons soaking up the sun, or evenings cruising the water, the lake lifestyle is yours to enjoy! Inside, you'll find a home that's been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated.
