About This Home
As of February 2025Who knew that you could find a tidy turn-key gem sitting on a wooded 1⁄2 acre lot within walking distance to Portsmouth's West End and only two miles from Prescott Park and downtown. As you step inside, the craftsmanship will certainly grab your attention. One will find crown molding and hardwood floors throughout. Built-in cabinets, a window seat and coffered ceilings in the living and dining rooms is complemented by granite countertops and commercial grade appliances in the kitchen. You'll find a built-in subzero fridge and a six burner gas stove with an exhaust hood and heat lamp. There is also a 1/2 bath, pantry and mudroom off the kitchen for all those odds and ends. A new on-demand water heater and new windows from top to bottom is certainly a nice touch. How about a walk-out basement for all those storage needs. Need more space? The walk-up attic could not be more convenient. As you step outside you’ll have many options as to where to host family and friends. Whether it’s sitting out on your front porch, or out back enjoying the views from up top on your IPE and mahogany deck. Rather sit down on the yard level? Enjoy a newly constructed lower floating deck. This sweet New Englander with shake shingles and clapboard siding has been freshly painted inside and out, has a two car garage, new driveway, and a large fenced-in backyard. All this with just two miles to access the highway. Who knew!? Seller is a licensed agent. Showings to begin 10/9/24. Open Sat. 10/12, 10a-12p.
