Big Island Pond is located in Southern New Hampshire in the towns of Atkinson, Hampstead and Derry NH.
It is a very popular 500 +/- acre lake, with 15 miles of shoreline and clear waters as deep as 75 feet that. Big Island Pond enjoys a great real estate reputation, meaning that property values traditionally have remained strong.
Big island Pond is a private pond with no public beaches or access other than a day fishing permit. The pond has one campground located in the town of Hampstead called Sanborn Shore Acres which is family owned campground that is always booked solid, mainly due to its prime waterfront location in Southern NH.
Waterfront homes for sale on Big Island pond currently range in values $289,900 to $800,000 and there are 7 waterfront homes available in MLS.
Big Island Pond has an excellent commuting location with easy access to all major routes both north and south.
The Pond has a rich history dating back to 1665 and the famous Abenaki Warrior Chief Escumbuit. It is a pond that can be enjoyed in all seasons as in the fall the waters are lowered and many folks enjoy ice skating once the remaining water has frozen solidly.
I recently closed on a HUD owned home in Collettes Grove and while doing the final walk through before closing I went down to check out the community beach.
The water was so calm that I decided to film a little video. Jay and I have been out on Big Island Pond many times and really love the pond.
The video was shot on April 25th and the pond waters had not yet risen to normal levels and the docks were not in nor had the little beach been cleaned up. But still it was very pretty.
My buyers bought a 2 bedroom home with a good sized kitchen and a huge great room plus a 2 car detached garage all located a few minutes away from the community beach.
Even though it was a Bank owned home, a HUD home, the sale went relatively smoothly with the exception of some near major hiccups from the internet lender. Thankfully we were able to work through the issues and closed on time.
My buyers are now proud owners of a home they can enjoy and call their own. It sure beats renting and they even have a lovely beach a few minutes away.
