A rare gem in one of the area’s most desirable neighborhoods, this beautifully maintained and extensively upgraded home offers space, serenity, and direct access to nature—everything today’s buyers dream of. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this 3-level residence sits on a stunning 0.7-acre lot with mature trees, lush gardens, and a fully developed food forest. Backed by forest with hiking and biking trails seconds from your door, the property offers a lifestyle that blends comfort, adventure, and homesteading. The home exudes warmth and care, with a sunken living room, fireplace, and abundant natural light. The kitchen features a gas cooktop, large windows framing garden views, and a sunroom/playroom attached. Downstairs, the spacious lower level includes a bedroom, new bathroom with heated floor, a gas fireplace, a gym and generous storage. With 5 bedrooms, this home offers flexibility for growing families or multigenerational living. The main bedroom is a true retreat, with a private deck and a new 4-person steam room and shower, perfect for unwinding after a day skiing on Mt. Washington, or trail adventure. Extensive upgrades ensure peace of mind and efficiency: a newer gas furnace, new roof, hot water on demand, mini-split heat pump, updated attic insulation, newer washer and dryer, and a Level 2 EV charger are all included. The grounds are impressive, 10 garden beds, 18 blueberry bushes, and a variety of fruit trees—apple, plum, cherry, pear, raspberry, thimbleberry, and thornless blackberry. A new garden shed, drip irrigation system, deer fencing, and custom gate make the space fully functional and easy to maintain. With zoning and lot size allowing for a future carriage house, the property offers potential for extended family or income generation. Whether you're gathering on the private patio, harvesting from the garden, or stepping into the forest for an afternoon hike, this is more than just a home, it’s a place to grow, connect, and thrive.
