Rare find on NH's seacoast - a picture-perfect oversized, custom colonial located in a quiet cul de sac less than 1 mile to the beach. Enjoy the birds and wildlife from the privately situated, 1,500 SF deck that overlooks the 2.5 AC parcel of landscaped lawn and surrounding wooded areas. Inside is a sun-splashed home with a large kitchen perfect for parties or serious cooking. An 8-foot island anchors the space, with an eating area at one end and at the other end an opening to spacious family room - complete with a stone surround gas fireplace, built-in shelving, direct access to the deck, and exposed beams that convey warmth and comfort.  Also on the main level - formal dining, a den with French doors, half bath and laundry/mudroom area. Head upstairs on the grand staircase and check out 3 generous BR's and shared bath, as well as a master suite with 2 closets, and an expansive bathroom with huge tiled shower plus a separate soaking tub and double sink vanity. And - Bonus! A big recreation room over the garage that is accessed from either the first or second floor via half staircase. Full staircase walk up attic could add about 600 SF of living space or be used for easy storage access. The walkout basement is large and unfinished, with lots of windows/natural light. And let's not forget - an attached 2-car garage. Upgrades include: the boiler was new in 2015, roof and exterior paint 1-2 years old. Don't let this one get away - schedule your showing today!
