Hate to give up the 2.5% interest rate with VA Loan but family obligations changes things. Primary consideration will be to someone looking to assume VA Loan to give me the entitlement back. Loan comes with great interest rate, amazing neighbors, floating dock, and deep water access. I biked to work every day I lived here and our neighborhood is an amazing little bubble.
The house is Cape Cod style on Scott’s Creek. Last house on the quiet street with the best neighbors in town. Walking distance to Portsmouth Naval Hospital, biking distance to Old Town Portsmouth, 5 minute drive to the interstate.
Currently tenant occupied but they will be moving out in October/November. I will only show the property to very serious inquiries, please do not disturb the tenants.
The pictures need to be updated but they show they give prospective buyers a good idea of the inside and outside. We were the third owners of the place, it was lovingly cared for and renovated by the previous owners, downstairs has an open floor plan with large kitchen, dining area, living room, wet bar, bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs has laundry, and two bedrooms each with their own private bathrooms. There is a small attic, detached garage/workshop, and stand alone shed. Yard is mostly fenced but it being waterfront you’d sacrifice view for fencing.
I am trying to do a “for sale by owner” thing to cut down on costs for both parties. Can negotiate most things without third party. Have a real estate attorney who will assist with necessary documents and realtor to call for any specific assistance.
