Description

One Floor Living. Travel into Westfield Park to step back to times when looking out your window meant sights and sounds of neighbors walking dogs, children on tri-cycles, baby carriages being pushed and sounds of passing vehicles are a rarity. Property is great as is but explore and discover all potential. Family room, single garage, family style kitchen and three bedrooms plus an owner's en suite. Hardwood. Walking distance to just about any necessity/amenity one could want. Also great commuter...One Floor Living. Travel into Westfield Park to step back to times when looking out your window meant sights and sounds of neighbors walking dogs, children on tri-cycles, baby carriages being pushed and sounds of passing vehicles are a rarity. Property is great as is but explore and discover all potential. Family room, single garage, family style kitchen and three bedrooms plus an owner's en suite. Hardwood. Walking distance to just about any necessity/amenity one could want. Also great commuter location. Close enough but just far enough away from downtown Portsmouth and all it has to offer-arts, entertainment and arguably the best selection of dining in the area.
