Property Description

This beautifully updated Portsmouth home blends classic charm with modern upgrades, all set on a private ¾-acre lot-a rare find in this area. The fully renovated kitchen features high-end Thermador appliances, granite countertops, and a subway tile backsplash. With three spacious bedrooms-including the option for a first-floor primary-and a versatile bonus room perfect as a fourth bedroom, office, gym, or playroom, there's space for everyone. Both bathrooms are fully renovated with premium finishes, including a luxurious spa-like custom steam room with soaking tub and dual shower heads. Enjoy the morning sun on the tranquil screened-in porch or host guests on the expansive new deck overlooking the backyard, often visited by local wildlife. Additional highlights include second-floor laundry, a newly installed front walkway and stairs, a two-car garage, and ample extra parking. Refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, and new interior doors and hardware add warmth and style throughout. Located on a quiet, sidewalk-lined street just minutes from downtown, this home offers the best of both worlds: peaceful and tucked away-yet close to the West End, shops, and restaurants. Convenient to public pickleball and tennis courts, playgrounds, the Rail Trail, Prescott Park, Peirce Island, Strawbery Banke, the farmers market, dog parks, the skate park, and local schools. Excellent commuter access-just an hour from Boston, Portland, and ski country.
