Fully renovated in 2023, the property is currently being used as office space by a nonprofit organization, resulting in exceptionally light residential wear and tear since the renovation. The kitchen, bathrooms, and living spaces have seen minimal day-to-day residential use and remain in excellent condition. Originally designed as a home, the flexible layout still easily translates to residential living, including a first-floor bedroom currently used as a conference room and upstairs bedrooms now functioning as offices. Bright, welcoming spaces, oversized windows, updated finishes, and a practical floor plan make it easy to envision the property as a full-time residence once again. The renovated kitchen features shaker cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample workspace and storage. Outside, the classic red exterior, detached barn/garage with loft space, and generous driveway add both curb appeal and functionality. Conveniently located near downtown Durham, UNH, and Seacoast amenities, this move-in ready property offers flexibility, character, and thoughtful modern updates throughout.
