About This Home

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION truly is the most crucial factor influencing real estate values and THIS ONE CAN’T BE BEAT.

This home is a short 6 minute drive to Route 95 North & South, a 20 minute walk into historic downtown Portsmouth and Prescott Park, a 10 minute walk to the popular West End restaurants and shopping, a 5 minute walk to Portsmouth High School, with its extensive athletic field complex, track and tennis courts, and a two minute walk to one of Portsmouth’s popular children’s parks at the former Lafayette School.

Built in 1960, this 5 bed room ranch style home has only known one family, and they loved it.
Its traditional floor plan is further benefited by a two bedroom addition off the back. Although a conditional use permit is always required, if an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is ever needed, this property can easily meet those requirements.
This home is very easy to show.
