Nestled within the exclusive Wentworth by the Sea community, this residence offers a unique opportunity to live one of the Seacoast’s most coveted lifestyles. Enjoy resort-style amenities including tennis and pickleball courts, a clubhouse and pool, and private beach access, adjacent to a world-class hotel, marina, and golf course. You'll love the proximity to the hotel's fine dining, sidewalk strolls to New Castle Common, and scenic drives to downtown Portsmouth. Well-sited on one of the larger lots at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home blends into its surroundings, providing unexpected privacy. The dramatic, 2-story great room features a wood fireplace and a soaring wall of glass, inviting natural light, and a seamless connection to the peaceful deck area. The kitchen and breakfast room extend to a sprawling stone patio and lush garden where al fresco dining is a summertime favorite. The 1st floor primary suite is spacious and complemented by 2 bedrooms upstairs, a shared bath, and loft. The walkout lower level is comprised of a charming library/den/rec room with a gas stove and built-ins, as well as 2 bedrooms with a shared bath, and private brick patio. Bonuses: lawn irrigation, whole-house standby generator, and the region's lowest property tax rate. This home comes with the rare benefit of being able to skip the multi-year waitlist for full privilege golf membership at Wentworth by the Sea Country Club and have your application considered immediately upon closing!
