About This Home

As of August 2021

Built in 1792, this property was initially the North Church Parsonage and used as the residence for Reverend Joseph Buckmeister. Purchased by the Wendell Family in 1878, descendants lived there until 1967. The property was then gifted to the Strawberry Banke until the current owners took possession in 2009. Recently converted and currently being used as a professional office space. Offering 5,220sf of space to work with (3,230sf home and 1,992sf barn), this would make a perfect conversion back to a residence for the discerning buyer that wants a classic Portsmouth home in the heart of downtown. The property is situated on over a 1/3 of an acre so there is plenty of room for private gardens or yard space. Home & attached historic barn are part of Strawberry Bank and has to be renovated according to Strawberry Banke review and approvals. A once in a lifetime chance to own a piece of history in the heart of downtown.
