About this home
Truly one-of-a-kind, this gambrel-style home radiates character and charm. Its unique interior spaces are ideal for that down-to-earth lifestyle you’ve been seeking! The original living and dining rooms exude warmth with wide-pine floors, wainscoting, crown moldings and two classic brick hearths (one with woodstove) for enjoying crackling fires. As a lovely complement, a modern addition brought window-filled rooms to maximize natural light as the sun passes overhead. Its updated kitchen with gleaming granite countertops and a breakfast bar is connected to a bright sunroom (currently a playroom) overlooking the backyard. A spacious family room over the garage is everyone’s favorite place to gather for movie time! Here, you’ll find a second woodstove and sliding doors that open to a deck. In addition to three bedrooms, there is also a guest room on the second floor and a home office on the first floor, offering the flexibility everyone needs today. Its private, oversized screened porch is the ultimate spot to curl up with a good summer read…or enjoy cocktails with friends in the evening. Sited on a sweet 1.45-acre lot only three miles from Portsmouth, it couldn’t be more convenient. Just over a mile from the Atlantic Ocean…imagine starting each day with a walk to sandy Foss Beach? Schedule your private tour now!
