Fire Features & Outdoor Living in Moultonborough, New Hampshire.
Governor’s Island — the highest-value lake property in the state. Across Carroll County we build fire features & outdoor living the slow way — excavated to depth over granite ledge and sandy soil, drained properly, and hand-fitted to the large shingled lake estates that define Moultonborough.
For Moultonborough designers and architects
If you are coming to us with a plan already drawn, we build it as drawn. We read grading and layout sheets fluently, hold the detail, and keep the designer informed at each milestone — the way we work with Jonathan Keep Landscape Design across New Hampshire.
What fire features & outdoor living cost in Moultonborough
Price in Moultonborough is driven less by the stone than by what is under it. Access, how far material has to be carried, the depth of base granite ledge and sandy soil demands, and the amount of drainage a site needs move a number far more than the choice between one bluestone and another.
You get an itemized scope after we walk the property — what is included, what is not, and where the money actually goes. No allowances that quietly become change orders halfway through.
Built to take real fire, for real years
A fire feature is a masonry structure, not decoration. We build on a footing carried below frost — which on granite ledge and sandy soil, with rock often the natural footing means going deeper than most expect — and line the core so the visible fieldstone or granite never takes the thermal punishment directly. That is why ours do not spall and crack after two winters.
Wood, gas, or a fire bowl: we run sleeves and gas lines during the build, and face the feature to suit the large shingled lake estates, boathouses, and mountain-view compounds it belongs to.
An outdoor room that gets used in Moultonborough
A fire feature is what stretches a Moultonborough yard from two usable seasons to three. We lay the space out on site first — seat height, circle diameter, how far the chairs sit from the flame, and which way the wind carries smoke across deep Winnipesaukee frontage, island lots, and mountain backdrop — because geometry is what decides whether a fire pit gets used or ignored.
Only once that reads right do we set stone, wrapping the fire with seat walls and terrace so the whole space is designed around where people actually gather.
Schedule and site care in Moultonborough
A job in Moultonborough is a few weeks of trucks, machines, and people in your yard. We plan staging and protection before day one — drive plates, root-zone protection, a defined material area — and leave the site clean each evening rather than at the end.

Questions
Fire Features & Outdoor Living in Moultonborough, answered.
Governor’s Island holds some of the most valuable lake property in New Hampshire — waterfront terraces here are built to shoreland rules and to a very exacting standard. We handle the local checks that go with that as part of the project rather than leaving them to you.
Yes. Cleiton Landscape & Masonry builds fire features & outdoor living throughout Moultonborough — from Governor’s Island, Suissevale, and Moultonborough Neck — and across Lakes Region, and has since 2008. We’re licensed and insured, we work across New Hampshire, and we build from architectural plans with millimeter precision.
A hand-built natural-stone fire pit generally runs $4,000 to $12,000+ depending on size, stone, whether it is wood or gas, and the seat walls and terrace built around it. A fire bowl or gas feature set into a larger terrace is priced with that scope.
Usually, yes. We hand-select from regional yards to match color, cleft, and scale against what is already on the property — which matters in Moultonborough, where the large shingled lake estates tend to be added to over time rather than replaced.
