Property Description
reasure of a home in the heart of Olde Towne Portsmouth! Dating to 1805, this historically significant English-basement residence once belonged to the British Naval Attaché before the American Revolution. Offering approximately 3,877 square feet across three levels, the home combines remarkable period character—including two beautiful stained-glass windows—with an adaptable layout. The first floor provides flexible options for remote or professional work, guest accommodations, or potential additional rental income. Spacious living areas, a fireplace, four bedrooms and four baths provide plenty of room, while the third-floor studio offers another private and versatile retreat. A rare opportunity to own a distinctive piece of Portsmouth history near the waterfront, restaurants, shops, museums and entertainment. Back on the Market Due to No Fault of the Sellers.
