About This Home
As of April 2021Over 200 feet of frontage on the Exeter and just seconds from all that downtown Exeter has to offer, this 3100 sq ft. gem is a rare and beautiful find. The construction of this home is amplified by custom updates throughout including a floating staircase, an L-shaped, hardwood-topped island and sleek, contemporary fixtures. The main level offers an open concept layout accentuated by oiled European hardwoods and large, bright windows that overlook the Exeter River. A double-doored, stainless steel refrigerator steals the show in the modernized kitchen with custom cabinetry. Smartly designed closets with custom built-ins are the essence of organization in both the pantry and bedrooms. Upstairs, the bonus space is an excellent opportunity for an office or 3rd bedroom. The laundry room is located on the 2nd floor and includes additional shelving/storage. A heated driveway and heated tandem 2-car garage are ideal for New England winters. Enjoy stone patio out back or head towards the river and relax by the gas firepit. The lawn and planted gardens are treated by an in-ground irrigation system and there is an invisible pet fence installed for furry friends. HardiePlank no maintenance siding offers upkeep convenience. Improvements for indoor air quality include an I-wave system to kill airborne pathogens, HEPA filters, a built-in humidifier/dehumidifier, an HE heating system, and an ERV energy recovery system to exchange the air inside.
