Description

This beautifully maintained Colonial offers generous space, thoughtful upgrades, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living, tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac neighborhood. The setting provides a true sense of community with low-traffic streets perfect for bike rides, evening walks, and pets enjoying the outdoors—while still being just minutes from the energy of downtown. The home immediately impresses with expansive front and backyard spaces offering plenty of room for recreation, gardening, or simply relaxing outdoors while enjoying the peaceful backdrop of abutting conservation land. Inside, the updated open-concept kitchen features rich cherry cabinetry, polished granite countertops, and a gas cooktop—ideal for those who love to cook and entertain. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the breakfast bar, casual dining area, and living room, creating a warm and welcoming space for everyday living. Multiple living areas—including a spacious family room, formal dining room, living room, and first-floor office—provide flexibility for both work and entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat with vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a private en suite bath. Two additional bright bedrooms, a full guest bathroom, and a convenient washer and dryer closet with storage complete the second floor. The finished walk-out lower level expands the home’s living space with an additional family room, versatile bonus area, and a mudroom just off the garage entry—perfect for everyday convenience. Enjoy easy access to nearby conservation land and scenic walking trails, offering a seamless connection to nature right from your neighborhood. While the setting feels peaceful and tucked away, you’re only minutes to the restaurants, waterfront, and vibrant culture of downtown Portsmouth, with convenient access to the beaches of coastal New Hampshire and Maine, as well as commuting routes to Boston.
