A gorgeous colonial located in a quiet cul de sac neighborhood in Stratham! Perfectly sited off the road and surrounded by beautiful stone walls and perennial gardens, this high-quality reproduction home has many classic details such as wide pine flooring and two large, brick fireplaces, including one in the kitchen. Other features of this custom built home include a mudroom off the garage, renovated kitchen with newer appliances, custom cabinets by Plain & Fancy, granite countertops, center island that seats 5, plus ample space for a large kitchen table. The deck is accessed from the kitchen so you're never too far from the grill. Also on the main level is a large front to back living room with a wood burning fireplace and a formal dining room that could also be an office. From the Living room there is direct access to the screened porch to enjoy cool breezes on warm summer nights. On the upper level are 4 bedrooms - one is an en suite master with soaking tub and walk-in closet, plus 3 additional bedrooms, amply sized with great closets. The laundry room is on the second floor as well as direct access to unfinished storage over the garage. (This space could alternatively be converted into living space.) And - bonus! The third floor is finished and ready for some recreation! Don't miss this special opportunity to live in a great community with highly ranked schools and a convenient location close to Portsmouth and just 1 mile to Stratham Hill Park and the elementary school.
