About This Home
Welcome to one of Kittery's most desirable waterfront neighborhoods! Perfectly situated along Mendum's Creek, this charming Cape enjoys peaceful water frontage, stunning views, and an unbeatable location just minutes from Kittery Foreside and downtown Portsmouth—all while being safely outside the flood zone. Thoughtfully maintained and beautifully designed, the home offers water views from nearly every room, including the shower!
The flexible floor plan offers one-level living options, including an ADA-compliant bathroom, first-floor primary suite with en-suite bath, laundry, and lovely water views. The inviting living room showcases year-round comfort with a gas fireplace, tin ceilings, and expansive views of the creek. A bright kitchen with granite counters, pantry, and space for casual dining opens to the formal dining room.
Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, each filled with charm and character—one featuring the most amazing hand-painted mural that brings the space to life. Both rooms offer great eave storage and the potential to add another bath.
The full walk-out basement provides endless possibilities for storage, a workshop, studio, or more. Set on a quarter-acre lot, the backyard feels private and serene while still being just minutes to area beaches. Whether you're seeking a year-round residence, weekend retreat, or investment in a premier location, this home checks all the boxes.
