About This Home

As of June 2024

Beautiful perennial gardens will await the new owner of this lovingly maintained and updated home that the owner has enjoyed for the last 37 years! Terrific location to walk the Community Trail, walk to downtown, Henry Law Park, the Children’s Museum of NH and, one day, the beautiful completed Cochecho Waterfront Development. In addition, the home is just minutes to the Spaulding Turnpike and the Amtrak Train Station. The home is set back from the street and the backyard is level with a Pergola and a great size for a City lot. The sun filled home has been delightfully updated over the years and boasts hardwood floors on the first level a nice open floor plan with a wood burning fireplace and enclosed porch. The second floor has 3 bedrooms and a full bath and the expansive finished attic lends itself to many uses. For history buffs, the home has an esteemed history having been moved from Folsom Street around 1928 and has had many notable owners including Dover’s first City Manager. Showings begin at open house on Friday, 4-19 from 4-6.
