Local legend has it that this neighborhood of like homes was built for the workers of the Sawyer Woolen Mills. This 3 bedroom, 2 bath home offers many upgrades, while maintaining it's historic charm and leaves little to be done for the new homeowners but to move in! With its high ceilings, the main living level features a spacious, fully applianced SS kitchen, a formal dining room and family room - all bathed in sunlight through oversized, vinyl replacement windows! Working from home? Not a problem, due to the new addition of a dedicated office (which could be used as a sunroom, playroom or gym too) and modern 3/4 bath & laundry room. The 2nd floor is laid out for ultimate convenience, with all 3 bedrooms upstairs, plus a full bath and beautiful wide pine floors. The private, level backyard in this in-town location offers plenty of room for lawn games, gardening, BBQs or just relaxing on the crushed stone patio under the twinkle lights! Excellent off-street parking and an oversized shed for storage round out the outdoor space. Close to shopping, restaurants, hospitals and all that Dover and the NH Seacoast has to offer.
