Property Description
Walk to everything! Own a piece of Portsmouth's storied South End history. Built circa 1800 by Captain John Stavers Davis, grandson of John Stavers, proprietor of the iconic William Pitt Tavern at Strawbery Banke, this distinctive Georgian-style home offers wonderful period character, a picturesque year-round view of South Mill Pond and an exceptional walk-to-everything going on in Portsmouth. Enter through the updated kitchen featuring granite countertops, white cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Off the kitchen is an inviting dining and gathering room accented by crown molding. An ideal setting for everyday living and entertaining. A separate, sun-filled living room provides another comfortable place to relax, with a convenient half bath completing the first floor. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms offer ample closet space and rustic wide-plank flooring. A charming, light-filled room currently serves as a dedicated home office, while a full bath completes the second floor. The full walk-up attic provides excellent additional storage. Outside, enjoy a delightful perennial pocket garden and patio, along with two off-street parking spaces, including one in the completely detached garage. The home has been thoughtfully and meticulously maintained, with substantial recent improvements including a new roof and furnace, whole-house Marvin Elevate windows, exterior painting and woodwork repairs, chimney restoration, a water-filtration system, new hot-water heater, updated appliances and more. Located in the desirable Little Harbor School District, the home is just a short stroll from Strawbery Banke, Sanders Fish Market, South Street & Vine, Geno's, the South End Yacht Club, Peirce Island and Prescott Park and only minutes from the restaurants, shops, galleries and cultural attractions of downtown Portsmouth. A rare opportunity to live in one of Portsmouth's most cherished neighborhoods.
