Set back from the road on a quiet, private lot, this home has the kind of character you can't manufacture. Warm pine floors run throughout, and two fireplaces anchor the living spaces for New England evenings. The second bedroom is currently set up as a handsome office, wrapped in rich wood paneling with a built-in Murphy bed, so it's a workspace by day and guest room by night. Upstairs, the private primary bedroom has its own door out to a shared deck, a good spot for morning coffee. The bathrooms have been tastefully renovated, and the third level offers real potential for future expansion for buyers who want room to grow. At 1,325 square feet, the home lives comfortably and efficiently, and the location is hard to beat. The Swasey Parkway trail is just around the corner for walks along the river. Downtown Exeter, with its 18th-century brick architecture, waterfront, and strong restaurant scene, is a short trip away. Commuters will appreciate easy access to the highways and the Amtrak Downeaster. It's a home with charm, privacy, and a walkable town at its doorstep.
