Tucked into a quiet neighborhood and enveloped by 1.5 acres of mature woodland, this beautifully updated 1972 mid-century embankment ranch offers exceptional privacy and an unparalleled connection to nature. The property directly abuts the University of New Hampshire's College Woods, placing hundreds of acres of scenic walking, running, and cross-country ski trails literally steps from your back door. Flooded with natural light from expansive walls of windows and sliding glass doors, the home lives like a modern treehouse. The dramatic vaulted great room features a soaring ceiling with exposed beams and a floor-to-ceiling fireplace as its centerpiece. An open flow continues into the dining area and the spectacular four-season sunroom, where panoramic forest views create a serene backdrop year-round. The main level includes a generous primary suite, a second bedroom , and direct access to a large rear deck that feels suspended among the treetops. The daylight lower level-fully finished and walk-out- provides a spacious family room with a second brick fireplace and wood stove, three additional bedrooms, a full bath, laundry room, and abundant storage. With a spacious detached 2 car garage and located just minutes from UNH campus, downtown Durham, and the Seacoast (with easy access to Portsmouth and major routes), this home combines peaceful woodland seclusion with remarkable convenience.
