About This Home
As of December 2021A rare opportunity for old house lovers. Welcome to the historic 1796 Emerson House, overlooking the Oyster River, and surrounded by conservation land. This 18th-century, center chimney home has been lovingly maintained and restored, boasting wide heart pine floors, raised panel doors and original hardware, five working Rumford-designed fireplaces, interior window shutters, and front staircase. A gorgeous, screened-in porch, and up-to-date, chef’s kitchen both have spectacular water views, and the outdoor living spaces are a dream, including a deck with hot tub, an outdoor cooking area, shower, large bluestone patio, granite walls, and extensive gardens, plus a two-story barn and garden shed. There are 3 bedrooms, 3 baths and a large 3 rd floor renovated office and studio (or a fourth bedroom suite, if you prefer). The home, located in the desirable Oyster River school district on a quiet dead-end street, has plenty of privacy yet is within walking distance to downtown Durham, with a new 200-amp electrical service, city water and sewer and natural gas. Fronting the scenic tidal river, the home comes with a private boat mooring with access to Great Bay estuary and Portsmouth Harbor.
