About 96 Chestnut St

Just in time for spring, you will find this completely renovated classic Portsmouth New Englander in the heart of downtown, on what is a quiet, private street. Classic Lines updated with modern amenities, a complete designer kitchen, spacious rooms, great ceiling height, and modern bathroom fixtures round out this exciting new listing. The owner has spared no expense in updating all the systems, the heating, air-conditioning, the dry basement/lower level, even the third-floor finished space, which acts as a bonus room/suite, or a quiet work space. Enjoy your parlor, wonderful dining area, large bedrooms, and even your wine room as they all have been tastefully completed. Situated on a dead-end street, the sidewalks, granite curbing, and beautiful flowers are all maintained by the City. Never worry about where you will park downtown with 3 front-to-back stack parking spaces on a brick driveway adjacent to your home. Invite friends and family to your brick sun-drenched outdoor ground level patio that's completely surrounded by natural vegetation. This is a definite condo alternative as the home has been upgraded and transformed to ultra low maintenance, with no annual meetings and assessments that are so common in a condo. No vehicular traffic on Chestnut Street other than by residents yet a hundred feet to the BEST restaurants, theatres and shopping. Live TAX free from income tax and sales tax, using this as your primary address and enjoy life as you deserve!
