Welcome to Meredith

With less than 7,000 residents, this Lake Winnipesaukee gem punches well above its weight when it comes to arts and culture. Meredith hosts the Lakes Region’s Fine Arts and Crafts Festival; one of the most respected arts events in the region, and is home to both the Interlakes Summer Theatre and the Winnipesaukee Playhouse, which has a year-round calendar of musicals, comedy shows, and more. There is also an enchanting sculpture walk that winds through town. Meredith’s Hermit Woods Winery & Eatery is on Food and Wine’s “Top 500” list. In addition to incredible wines, they serve up live jazz, folk, blues, and more at music events in their Listening Room loft.

If you’re visiting, take a fall foliage tour on the historic Winnipesaukee Scenic Railway, drink local at Twin Barns Brewing or Hermit Woods Winery, or visit one of the numerous ski mountains that are located within a 1-hour drive.
 
Whether it’s your home or your home away from home, there is always something new to do and explore in Meredith.
 
When it comes to real estate, Meredith is a town of mostly single-family homes, with a handful of condos if you know where to look. Properties here tend to command a premium thanks to Meredith’s famous charm, convenience, and popularity, but the lifestyle here is priceless.
