Shopping for a Winnipesaukee condo where you can park the boat, hit the beach, and relax while someone else handles maintenance? Jonathan’s Landing in Moultonborough might be the low‑stress lake base you’ve been picturing. You want clear answers on slips, fees, layouts, and recent sale prices before you decide. This guide walks you through what the community offers, how docking works, what to budget, and who it tends to fit best. Let’s dive in.
Where Jonathan’s Landing sits
Jonathan’s Landing is a private, 62‑unit condominium community on Long Island in Moultonborough, zip code 03254. It spans about 59 acres and centers on a protected inland marina reported at 59 slips. You can explore the community’s overview on the association’s official website.
The association lists its office at 17 London Hill Road, Moultonborough, NH 03254, and notes Evergreen Harvard Group as the property manager. That management structure adds clarity on maintenance, financials, and day‑to‑day operations.
Homes and layouts
Townhome style and size
Most homes here are contemporary townhouses built in the mid‑1980s. MLS examples commonly show year‑built ranges around 1984 to 1986, with finished sizes often in the 1,800 to 2,800 square foot range and some larger end units above 3,500 square feet. For a feel of typical layouts and features, review recent examples on PRIMEMLS.
Floor plans and features
Expect vaulted ceilings, open living and dining areas, and decks positioned to capture light and views. Many homes offer 3 to 4 bedrooms with 2 to 4 baths. Some listings highlight a first‑floor bedroom suite, which can support single‑level living if that is a priority for you.
Storage and garages
A minority of homes show detached garages or assigned storage. In some past sales, private boat‑storage garages were offered as optional, separate purchases. Always verify current garage or storage rights by reviewing the deed and the association’s maps.
Amenities that matter on the lake
You come here for time on the water and easy recreation. Jonathan’s Landing checks the big boxes, including:
- A protected, inland marina
- Natural sandy swimming beach inside the community
- Two heated in‑ground pools
- Tennis and pickleball courts
- Playground
- Kayak and paddleboard storage
- Assigned parking and golf‑cart‑friendly internal roads
Many buyers consider the protected marina and beach the community’s core strengths. You can see the amenity summary on the association site.
How docking and slips work
Many MLS listings for Jonathan’s Landing describe a deeded or assigned 26‑foot slip included with the home or available in the protected marina. In select cases, sellers have offered larger 35‑foot slips or private boat‑storage garages as separate, optional purchases. That is not guaranteed community‑wide, and availability changes as units trade hands.
Your best next step is to request the marina map, slip inventory, and slip‑assignment policy in writing from the association or the listing agent. Ask whether slips are deeded or limited common elements, if there is a wait list, and whether any separate marina fees apply.
Fees, taxes, and carrying costs
HOA dues vary by home size and by how the listing reports the figure. Recent examples show dues in the roughly 700 to 1,000 dollars per month range for larger units, with some listings entered quarterly rather than monthly. To see how fees are typically presented, review current entries on PRIMEMLS.
Listings commonly show dues that cover landscaping, snow removal, master insurance, community water and trash, exterior maintenance, and use of pools and courts. Always confirm the exact inclusions in the seller’s resale or estoppel certificate.
On taxes, Moultonborough has historically reported a lower town tax rate than many nearby towns. The Town reported a 2025 rate of 5.33 dollars per 1,000 dollars of assessed value, compared to 5.65 in 2024. Your annual tax amount will depend on the property’s assessment, so run the math on any unit you are considering.
Market snapshot and recent sales
Inventory at Jonathan’s Landing is limited, and desirable homes can move quickly when priced well. Recent MLS activity offers helpful benchmarks:
- Premium direct‑water or beachfront end units have reached the high end of the market, with a notable 2025 sale closing at 1,844,000 dollars.
- Mid to upper range units with lake views and a deeded slip have commonly traded around 1,000,000 to 1,350,000 dollars in 2024 to 2025.
- Earlier‑cycle interior or less‑premium locations showed sales in the 700,000 to 900,000 dollar range during 2022.
A local multi‑year review also showed the median rising from the 700,000 dollar range in 2020 to above 1,000,000 dollars by 2023 to 2024 as inventory tightened. Use these as directional ranges, then confirm current actives, pendings, and the latest solds before you write an offer.
Who Jonathan’s Landing tends to fit
Second‑home buyers who boat
If you want turnkey lake living with on‑site docking and a sandy beach, this community is a strong match. The protected marina and common 26‑foot slip arrangement stand out. Your key checks are total carrying costs, slip details, and any separate marina fees.
Downsizers seeking low maintenance
You keep lake access without yard or roof upkeep. Look for units with a first‑floor bedroom suite if single‑level living is important. Confirm accessibility details, parking proximity, and whether the floor plan matches your mobility needs.
Investors exploring rentals
The Lakes Region draws strong summer demand. Whether Jonathan’s Landing works for short‑term rentals depends on the association’s rules and local requirements. Start by reading an investment overview for New Hampshire to frame your analysis, then request the association’s written rental policy, minimum lease terms, and any approval process.
What to ask and what to read before you buy
Condos have an extra layer of due diligence. Request these items up front or as a contract contingency:
- Master deed or declaration, recorded plat, and the unit map to confirm boundaries, interest percentages, and slip treatment
- Bylaws and rules, including rental, pet, parking, and move‑in policies
- Current budget, recent financials, and the latest reserve study or summary
- Resale or estoppel certificate for dues, special assessments, and transfer fees
- Board meeting minutes from the last 12 to 36 months to uncover planned projects or disputes
- Marina plan, current slip inventory, and the slip‑assignment policy in writing
- Property management contract term and master insurance declarations
- Utility responsibilities for community water and septic, plus any inspection history
- If financing, confirm the project meets lender condo‑approval standards

Orientation inside the community
As you preview listings, you will often see addresses on Topside Road, Portside Drive, and Starboard Lane. End units closest to the beach or along the water tend to command a premium. More interior or meadow‑facing locations often price lower. Walk the site to understand how each cluster relates to the beach, pools, courts, and the marina.
How to buy well at Jonathan’s Landing
- Start with the slip. Confirm whether the home includes a deeded 26‑foot slip, whether a slip is assigned, and whether larger slips are available by separate arrangement.
- Build the true monthly budget. Add HOA dues, property taxes, master and interior insurance, and any marina or storage fees.
- Verify the building plan. If single‑level or minimal stairs matter, confirm the primary suite location and stair count.
- Read the minutes and reserves. You want adequate reserves and clear plans for major projects.
- Pull current comps. Price bands shift with season and inventory. Use the latest actives, pendings, and solds to right‑size your offer.
