Delayed showings will begin on Saturday November 16th. Bring your vision and ideas to 42 College Road in Stratham, NH. This over 3,000 square foot cape has it all - 3 acres of land, a two car garage, a barn in the backyard for all of your exterior/landscaping items (at one time there was a chicken coop on the property), and in a great location. Less than a mile to Chapman's Landing boat launch, you can kayak in the warmer months, while also being just a quick drive to Newmarket or Stratham shopping, restaurants, and more. Inside the home, the first floor has an abundance of space. Open concept kitchen, large living room, & a huge dining area with built in bookshelves. Breezeway from the garage to the kitchen. There are two rooms on the first floor that could be used as an office, second family room, guest space, etc. 2 bedrooms upstairs with a 3/4 bath in between. Enclosed porch off of the back of the home gives you sweeping views of the rear yard. Your own little slice of paradise, the property extends past the woodline and through the trees. There is potential for landscaping should you have a green thumb, and the in-ground pool (has not been in use for a few years) might be something a buyer wants to bring "back to life!". Full basement. Multiple locations for storage space on this property, between the barn, garage and full basement. Don't miss your chance to call Stratham. "home". Showing blocks 11/16 from 11-1, and 11/17 2-4pm. Agents, please see the non public remarks.
