About this home

A sense of calm and peace embraces you when you enter this multi-level, carefully planned out home on desirable New Castle Island. Picturesque views, ocean water and a quaint village atmosphere. Much thought was put into this house designed and built by the well known architect/contractor team of Lisa Destefano and Joe Tucker. Nestled in a neighborhood of lovely homes while reserving the best views from the rear of the property. Views across the back all are aimed towards the sweeping and ever-changing views of Little Harbour. Easy access to downtown fine dining, Strawberry Banke and all that Portsmouth has to offer. Amenities include cherry flooring, heated tile floors, steam shower in primary bath, new custom kitchen, transom windows and beautiful woodwork abound in this four bedroom home. Primary suites are on both the main and second floor, which allows for flexible living. An enclosed porch allows enjoyment of the views throughout the year. The patio is graciously wrapped with a hydrangea covered stone wall. The gardens surrounding this home are simple and elegant. Kayak or Stand-up-Paddle from your backyard. New custom kitchen cabinets, countertops and appliances in 2021 as well as a new heating system in 2022. Tesla charging station in garage.
