Charming Colonial Backing onto 10 Acres of Marshland Paradise Welcome to your serene escape—this beautifully maintained 3 bed, 3 bath Colonial-style home blends classic elegance with modern upgrades, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood just three very walkable blocks from scenic Lake Massabesic. Only 12 years young, this home offers timeless appeal with all hardwood floors throughout, central air with an energy-efficient heat pump, and tasteful upgrades that make it truly move-in ready. The updated ensuite features a new shower, modern lighting, toilet, and sleek slider doors for the shower. The partially finished walk-out basement provides flexible space for a home office, gym, or extra entertaining area-pool table is negotiable. Step outside to your private hardscape terrace and fire pit—perfect for cool evenings and marsh views, the porch off of the first floor offers some spectacular sunsets too. Nature lovers will adore the 10 acres of pristine marshland just beyond the backyard, alive with songbirds. Located just steps from the Rockingham Trail and a mile from major highways 101 and 93 —yet far enough away to hear only the peaceful calls of the wild—you’ll enjoy both convenience and tranquility. All that's left to do is mow the lawn… and maybe chase off a curious rabbit or two nibbling on the grass. This is more than a home—it's a lifestyle. Don't miss your chance to own a slice of New Hampshire paradise in Manchester. Open house Saturday, May 10th, 2-4PM
