Set on a landscaped .25-acre lot in a Portsmouth creek neighborhood in the West End, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers character, updates, and future potential in a highly convenient location. Hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, where a light-filled kitchen anchors the layout and a 3-season porch adds additional living space. Recent improvements include a high-efficiency gas boiler, custom top-down/bottom-up shades, new light fixtures, and an updated electric panel. The backyard has been redone and includes a shed and a workshop with concrete floor. A walkout basement with egress window and approvals in place for an additional bedroom and bath provides expansion options. Everyday destinations are nearby: .2 miles to New Franklin Elementary, .6 miles to White Heron Tea & Coffee, Loaded Question Brewery, CVS, and Hannaford, and .4 miles to the Senior Activity Center. Transportation access is extensive with the Coast Bus stop at Woodbury, 2.8 miles to the C&J bus to Boston/Logan/NYC, 3 miles to the NH Seacoast Greenway bike path, and the Downeaster train in Durham, Dover, or Exeter. Beaches are 15 minutes away, and there are multiple dog parks and off-leash areas within easy reach. Regional airports include Pease (flights to Florida), Logan, Manchester, and Portland. Major employers and institutions such as UNH and Portsmouth Naval Shipyard are within commuting distance.
