A 2-story hallway leads to the main living area featuring large windows overlooking the peaceful Sakonnet River. Find quiet relaxation in the reading/TV area with built-in bookcases and a cozy window seat. With entertaining in mind, the recently renovated kitchen presents new countertops, lighting, and stainless appliances. The fireplaced dining room showcases a hand-painted nautical mural for a stunning focal point. Step out to the deck for picturesque views of the lush grounds and the water beyond. The large yard, with well-water sprinkler system, includes charming stone work, seasonal plantings, and younger trees for privacy. Upstairs, a primary suite with water views and 3 additional bedrooms make for restorative retreats, while the spacious attic adds the potential for finishing as a bonus office, studio, or primary bedroom expansion. Energy-efficient Pella windows and new heating/electrical systems lend peace of mind. Greater Portsmouth offers markets, restaurants, and schools, as well as easy access to Route 24 for commuting.
