Nestled in Portsmouth’s coveted South End, this rare single-family home offers views of Prescott Park and the river, plus a private backyard and garage. One of only six homes with such a view, it's minutes from Strawbery Banke and downtown. Blending New England charm with modern comfort, it features water views from every bedroom. The light filled open-concept layout includes high ceilings, hardwood floors, and mini-split systems for year-round comfort. The cook’s kitchen boasts a large island, stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, and abundant cabinetry—ideal for daily living and entertaining. A spacious living room offers a gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and cathedral ceiling, leading to a private covered porch overlooking the Prescott Park Gardens and Piscataqua river. The serene primary suite includes water views, a renovated en-suite bath with river views from the shower, and a walk-in closet. The 2nd floor also includes another bedroom and full bath. The finished third floor adds a bedroom, bonus office/studio space, and plumbing rough-ins for a future bath. A stylish half bath/laundry room and separate mudroom complete the first floor, rare for this age home. Additional features include a full basement, one-car garage, newly paved driveway for 3 cars, and a backyard with new patio, irrigation, and mature landscaping. A rare opportunity in Portsmouth’s most treasured neighborhood. Delayed showings begin 9/3/2025.
