18 Engel St Concord, NH 03301

Less than 3 miles from downtown Concord, this lovingly renovated Cape blends sustainable modern systems with country-living charm on 1.6 acres of sun-soaked alluvial soil. Bright, warm and draft-free thanks to blown-in wall insulation and piped natural gas, the home features whole-house solar that often produces a negative electric bill for 4-6 months, plus a 40-amp exterior plug perfect for an EV charger. Entertain easily in your renovated kitchen that opens onto a low-maintenance composite deck with new aluminum rail. Each room flows easily in another for effortless living. First floor flex space is perfect for an office or bedroom. The first-floor bath renovation is ready for the next owner to finish: Includes all fixtures, a custom solid-wood vanity, and a Runtal towel warmer tied into the home's heating system. Thoughtful updates include three quiet mini-splits for efficient cooling and supplemental heating. The entire second floor was recently renovated with a new custom bathroom, carpeting, interior-wall sound insulation between bedrooms, and Ethernet hardwired to every room via a basement switchboard-ideal for remote work. The basement is dry and ready to be finished for additional living space or workshop potential. Outdoor living is the star: established garden beds, dwarf apple trees, blueberries and black raspberries, plus winter crops already underway. Trails are at your doorstep-neighborhood access to Morono Trail connects to miles of hiking and the future rail-trail for bike/ped access to downtown-while state land borders the property on three sides and winter views stretch to the Merrimack River. A rare combination of energy-efficient systems, move-in-ready comforts, abundant storage and true garden potential-ideal for city-minded farmers, remote workers, or anyone craving private, sustainable living minutes from Concord.
