Conveniently located within steps to downtown, train station, shopping, restaurants and Phillips Exeter Academy. This home has many stunning features: unique windows, tall ceilings, carved front staircase (along with a convenient back staircase), hardwood and pine floors, fireplace and a large eat-in kitchen with two pantries, many cabinets opening to a screened porch. This home is flooded with sunlight and has a dining room with antique chandelier and built-ins. There is also a front porch opening from the cozy den. New granite steps lead you to an elegant glass surround front door and the balcony above the living room makes a lovely presentation. The home has 3303 square feet and has had many upgrades. Sitting on .72 acres, the land was once owned by Amos Tuck (see attached history).
