About this home
Come take a look at this amazing transformation! Newly purchased in January and totally rehabbed throughout by April! This one floor Ranch style home is ready to move into! The exterior has been partially re-sided, new architectural shingle roof, new vinyl tilt-in windows throughout, new landscaping. The interior is now open concept with a brand new kitchen open to the large living room. New flooring throughout keeping a crisp modern look. Stainless steel Whirlpool appliances in the kitchen, quality white wooden cabinets with granite counters and ceramic backsplash. Three bedrooms with new windows, flooring and lighting. The master has a full bath within. Both full baths have new vanities, flooring, granite counters, lighting and toilets. Laundry hook-ups were moved to the first level from the basement and located conveniently in the hallway off the three bedrooms. New smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, new wiring and plumbing in kitchen. New propane gas fired Rinnai boiler and on demand hot water. Convenient carport keeps your dry from the elements. Storage shed on property as well. The large unfinished basement has been freshly painted and would make a great family/rec room in the future. Garrison School is right down the street as well as Dover downtown and Portsmouth downtown a short drive away! Showings begin by appointment on Saturday, April 17 between noon and 4pm. Again on Sunday from 11:00 am to 3pm.
