Property Description
Prepare for your shoulders to drop as you cross the Gerrish Island Bridge over Chauncey Creek in Kittery Point, and let the relaxation settle in as you wind your way down wooded streets to your peaceful oasis at 47 Tower Road. Framed by tidal marshes and the Rachel Carson Nature Reserve, the 8.5+/- acre lot has boundless views of the saltmarsh to the open ocean waters beyond. The Post and Beam home offers 3,203+/- square feet that features a spacious kitchen with eat-in area, adjacent dining room with a wall of closets for storage, grand living room with floor-to-ceiling hearth and wood burning fireplace as well as floor-to-ceiling windows framed by doors to access the water side deck. The first level primary suite encompasses the west wing of the home and offers a wrap-around private deck overlooking the marsh and out toward the Atlantic. The east wing offers a den with woodburning fireplace and telescoping doors that open onto the sunroom with a private entrance. Make your way up the custom circular staircase to the cat-walk overlooking the main living area to the two guest bedrooms that share a full bath. The unfinished basement offers plenty of room for storage and has a garage door for easy access to your water toys near the private dock. The wooden dock allows you to ''put-in'' your watercraft at high tide to access the many meandering waterways. The home is completed by the two-car detached garage, located within the semi-circular drive. Live in this peaceful location with quick access to local Kittery beaches, restaurants and shops or head over the bridge to Portsmouth and beyond.
