About this home
A unique Seacoast offering, the historic Banfield-Langdon House is perched above Lafayette Road on just under an acre. Dating to the early 1700s, the property combines more than three centuries of history with a rare combination of land, privacy, and convenience, just minutes from downtown Portsmouth and nearby beaches. Inside, wide pine floors, exposed beams, and period details reflect the home’s colonial origins and generations of history. With limited modernization over the years, much of its original character remains intact, presenting an opportunity for a buyer with the vision to restore and update the home for modern living while respecting its past. Behind the home, mature plantings and open grounds create an unexpectedly private setting, complemented by an existing tennis court and substantial space to reimagine the landscape. There is room to consider gardens, outdoor living, a pool, or other improvements. The grounds include a historic barn, with a portion currently serving as the garage. Attached unfinished space offers the potential to expand the home’s living area or create guest quarters, a studio, home office, or accessory dwelling unit, subject to applicable approvals. For a buyer who appreciates historic architecture and sees the possibilities in what is already here, the Banfield-Langdon House offers the chance to preserve a piece of Portsmouth’s past while thoughtfully shaping its future....
