Description

Pulling up to this charming New Englander after a fast-paced day may result in a renewed sense of calm and well-being. On rainy evenings when you're in a hurry to put the kettle on, you can drive right into your attached 2-car garage, drop your coat & cares off in the spacious mudroom and enter your cheerful kitchen. During the bucolic days of spring/summer/fall, you can stretch out, mosey around the yard, then sit & gaze toward the sunset from your 14 x 20 deck overlooking the gorgeous back yard!...Pulling up to this charming New Englander after a fast-paced day may result in a renewed sense of calm and well-being. On rainy evenings when you're in a hurry to put the kettle on, you can drive right into your attached 2-car garage, drop your coat & cares off in the spacious mudroom and enter your cheerful kitchen. During the bucolic days of spring/summer/fall, you can stretch out, mosey around the yard, then sit & gaze toward the sunset from your 14 x 20 deck overlooking the gorgeous back yard! For fuel efficiency & year-round comfort, the sellers added a new roof & attic insulation in 2014. New flooring has been professionally installed in the kitchen, 1st floor bath & mudroom, and several rooms are sporting a fresh coat of pretty paint! New windows were installed in 2013, the furnace is 8 yrs young & hot water tank, only 6! The location is AMAZING--- just 2 miles by footpath to Hilton Park (makes for a gorgeous river view run!) & minutes to all-things Dover, Pease Int'l Tradeport, downtown Portsmouth, and beaches & mountains via commuter routes. For history buffs, this home abuts one of the first (ever) Colonial church sites, as listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. Also nearby: the Garrison Elementary School, Tendercrop & Emery farm stands & the iconic Newick's! The Sellers are moving to be closer to their jobs. If this home is close to YOUR job, you're in luck!
