About this home
Set on a beautifully landscaped .25-acre lot in a desirable Portsmouth creek neighborhood in the West End. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers character, updates, and future potential in one of the city’s most convenient locations. Hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, where a light-filled kitchen anchors the layout and a welcoming 3-season porch adds extra living space. The backyard has been recently redone, providing a private setting for outdoor enjoyment, complemented by a shed, and bonus workshop with a concrete floor for storage or projects. A walkout basement enhances the versatility of the home with an egress window already in place and approvals secured for finishing an additional bedroom and bath, giving buyers an opportunity to expand as needed. Close proximity to New Franklin School and close to neighborhood shops, restaurants, playgrounds, and Portsmouth Hospital, the property also provides quick access to I-95, Route 16, 33, and 101 for easy commuting throughout the Seacoast and beyond. Blending classic craftsmanship with thoughtful updates and expansion options, this move-in ready home presents an outstanding opportunity to enjoy Portsmouth living at its best. Showings begin at the Open House.
