Tucked in the heart of Portsmouth’s South End, this beautifully reimagined home combines timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. The kitchen shines with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, with Thermador & Bosch appliances, while the adjoining living area offers a warm, inviting spot to relax by the new electric insert in the wood burning fireplace. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features a walk-in closet, custom built-ins, and an elegant en-suite bath. A second bedroom with its own newly updated full bath ensures comfort for guests or family. Originally renovated top-to-bottom in 2008 and enhanced again in 2020, the home continues to evolve with style and care. Classic details - exposed beams, gunstock corners, and wide wood floors - bring a sense of history to the light-filled spaces. Every detail has been carefully maintained and improved -from the refreshed landscaping with irrigation to the newly painted interior and updated heating system. Outside, a private stone patio and pocket garden create a peaceful retreat, and a garage with a brick driveway provides three coveted off-street parking spaces. Ideally located near Portsmouth’s best restaurants, parks, and waterfront attractions, this impeccable South End residence offers the very best of in-town living.
