About This Home

As of August 2021

A landmark waterfront estate surrounded by tidal waters and an exclusive equestrian facility known as Fresh Creek Farm, this Fiorentino-designed home is perfectly situated on 3.6 acres and enjoys commanding river and pastoral views. Pre-oiled cedar shingles, Lepage windows and doors, handsome masonry and a welcoming front porch create one of the most remarkable facades in the entire Seacoast. The quality extends to the interior of the home with locally built kitchen cabinetry and built-ins, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, Hubbardton Forge light fixtures, multiple wood-burning fireplaces, red birch floors and trim throughout, along with a superior spray foam and Geothermal energy package. Every room in the home offers an amazing view. The kitchen, great room and master suite all overlook the ever changing tidal waters of Fresh Creek, while the covered balcony off the home's exquisite office suite offer some amazing sunsets over the Cochecho River! Even the laundry and play rooms offer scenic views of horses grazing in the nearby paddocks! If you need additional space for guests and or toy storage, plans have already been drafted for a separate carriage house with living quarters! Unquestionably Dover's premier address, Saddle Trail Drive is just minutes from the Cochecho Country Club, Berwick Academy, downtown Portsmouth, and several of the Seacoast's best beaches and finest restaurants. This home and property will not disappoint and it is available for immediate occupancy!
