    What's special

    Wait until you see this charming, light and bright one-level Ranch with direct access to the Exeter River! Enjoy fishing or launching a canoe right from your own backyard, all while being located outside of a flood zone. Tucked away on a private lot in Chester with no neighbors visible on either side, this home offers a peaceful setting surrounded by nature. Inside, you’ll find a light-filled and inviting interior, 2–3 bedrooms, an updated kitchen, a full bathroom, and a basement offering plenty of storage. A cozy wood stove will keep you toasty during those chilly New Hampshire winters. Step outside onto the spacious deck overlooking the river, the perfect place to relax, entertain, or simply take in the beautiful natural surroundings. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the abundant birds and wildlife, fishing, and opportunities for canoeing or boating when water levels allow. A storage shed, additional she-shed, and extra parking add even more versatility. If you’ve been dreaming of a light, bright and peaceful home where you can enjoy the outdoors right from your own backyard, this one is a must-see! Showings start at the open house on Saturday, Sept 5 from 12-2.
