18 Engel St Concord, NH 03301

Less than 3 miles from downtown Concord, this lovingly renovated Cape blends sustainable modern systems with country-living charm on 1.6 acres of sun-soaked alluvial soil. Bright, warm and draft-free thanks to blown-in wall insulation and piped natural gas, the home features whole-house solar that often produces a negative electric bill for 4–6 months, plus a 40-amp exterior plug perfect for an EV charger. Entertain easily in your renovated kitchen that opens onto a low-maintenance composite deck with new aluminum rail. Each room flows easily in another for effortless living. First floor flex space is perfect for an office or bedroom. The first-floor bath renovation is ready for the next owner to finish: Includes all fixtures, a custom solid-wood vanity, and a Runtal towel warmer tied into the home’s heating system. Thoughtful updates include three quiet mini-splits for efficient cooling and supplemental heating. The entire second floor was recently renovated with a new custom bathroom, carpeting, interior-wall sound insulation between bedrooms, and Ethernet hardwired to every room via a basement switchboard—ideal for remote work. The basement is dry and ready to be finished for additional living space or workshop potential. Outdoor living is the star: established garden beds, dwarf apple trees, blueberries and black raspberries, plus winter crops already underway. Trails are at your doorstep—neighborhood access to Morono Trail connects to miles of hiking and the future rail-trail for bike/ped access to downtown—while state land borders the property on three sides and winter views stretch to the Merrimack River. A rare combination of energy-efficient systems, move-in-ready comforts, abundant storage and true garden potential—ideal for city-minded farmers, remote workers, or anyone craving private, sustainable living minutes from Concord.
