Description

Where coastal ease meets timeless New England character - this beautifully restored 1930 Dutch Colonial sits in the heart of vibrant Kittery Foreside, just a short stroll to acclaimed restaurants, boutique shops, art galleries, the Rice Public Library, live music, dancing, and only 1.5 miles from downtown Portsmouth and Market Square. Blending historic craftsmanship with designer-inspired updates, the home is filled with natural light and welcomes you with a charming covered porch and front entry. Step inside to a spacious living room anchored by a gas fireplace and framed by an elegant staircase that sets a refined tone for the home. Throughout the main level, hardwood floors and period millwork create warmth and continuity. The dining room features a bow window, built-in bench seating and two glass-front hutches, and flows seamlessly into the kitchen with granite countertops, modern appliances, and direct access to the private backyard. A first floor bedroom with its own private exterior entrance, along with a dedicated office, is thoughtfully positioned near an updated three-quarter bath - ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or flexible work-from-home needs. Upstairs is a primary suite with two closets and a generous dressing room or sitting area, three inviting bedrooms, and a full bath. The expansive and partially-finished third floor invites imagination for a variety of lifestyle-focused uses. Outside, the property is beautifully landscaped with a fenced-in backyard, an irrigation system, and a large deck for relaxing, dining, or gathering. Public Open House: Saturday, 6/27, 10am-12pm.
