About this home

A 'Little Harbour' gem privately tucked on the end of a dead end street and just a short walk to the bustle of all downtown Portsmouth has to offer. Better than new, this home was completely designed & rebuilt from the foundation up in 2015, offering all the functionality of brand new. Step inside to find a welcoming open concept floor plan, great for entertaining. The 1st floor offers an open concept kitchen with custom built cabinetry and a large panty, the dining area is open concept style overlooking the backyard and is open to a large living room w/ a gas fireplace. Work from home? No problem, this home offers a designated study room and a 1st floor bedroom currently used as a den. A full 3/4 bathroom on the 1st floor leaves options open for 1st floor living needs. Head upstairs to find a lg. primary suite wing with a huge walk-in closet and large bathroom complete with a walk-in dual head tile shower and double vanities. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are large in size with a great closet and storage space and lets not forget the oversized 2nd floor laundry room. If inside is not enough, step outside to the backyard oasis with a covered porch, two lg. patios, built in fire pit area, professional landscaping that will continue to wow you all seasons and a large shed. The privacy and solitude of this home make it a rare find just over a mile to downtown. SHOWINGS BEGIN BY APPOINTMENT ONLY ON SUNDAY 5/15. Owners are licensed Realtors. Floor Plans attached.
