Gracefully positioned along 165 feet of pristine Piscataqua River frontage, this exceptional custom-built expanded Cape presents a rare opportunity where timeless craftsmanship meets refined waterfront living. Set on nearly five private acres, the approach via a circular driveway immediately establishes a sense of seclusion and arrival. From the inviting wraparound back porch, enjoy peaceful moments immersed in natural beauty and an atmosphere of understated luxury. Inside, a striking post-and-beam architectural design anchors the home, highlighted by dramatic vaulted ceilings and meticulous craftsmanship that define the expansive yet inviting living spaces. The grand living room offers warmth and character with a wood-burning fireplace, perfectly scaled for entertaining while framing tranquil river views. The modern chef’s kitchen is thoughtfully curated with refined finishes, generous prep space, and a walk-in pantry, seamlessly supporting both everyday living and elegant gatherings. A dedicated laundry room enhances convenience. The home features three well-appointed bedrooms, two and one-half baths, and a private office or study ideal for today’s luxury lifestyle. The serene primary suite is a true retreat, complete with one of the home’s three fireplaces, adding comfort and ambiance. A carefully considered layout balances openness with intimacy, creating a residence that feels both grand and welcoming. Outdoors, the property’s riverfront setting is further enhanced by a seasonal floating dock, offering direct access to the Piscataqua River for boating, kayaking, and waterfront enjoyment throughout the warmer months. Completing the estate is a three-car garage with additional space above, providing for future possibilities or creative use. An extraordinary riverfront offering of this caliber—where craftsmanship, privacy, land, and location converge—rarely becomes available so don't miss your chance!
