General overview
Our home is comfortable, full of light enhanced by water sparkling on the river across the street. It is filled with art and kitchen items from my travels. The fantastic location means we can walk to all the shops, restaurants and entertainment we need, despite being in a small town. And it's a great base for exploration of New England!
The space
On the main floor you'll find 2 spacious living rooms - one with river views (and tv), the other with books and board games. Eat in kitchen with all the gadgets. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms (queen, full and twin beds) and 2 full bathrooms (one is en suite to the queen bedroom). Front yard looking onto the river, with Adirondack chairs to sit in, relax and enjoy the view.
Guest access
There are a few stairs to get into the house, and more stairs to get up to the bedrooms and bathrooms.

Neighbourhood
We live in a lovely quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors, while just minutes' walk from the historic downtowns of Portsmouth, New Hampshire and Kittery, Maine. You can run all your errands on foot if you want, with a produce/grocery shop, butcher, fresh pasta and prepared foods, multiple bakeries and MANY great restaurants nearby. Both towns also have lots of live music, bookstores, galleries, and other shops to enjoy, along with historic colonial buildings and many festivals and events throughout the year. Plus within 15-20 minutes you can get to multiple beaches.
Nearest airport
Boston Logan airport, approximately 1 hour drive
Portland Maine airport, approximately 40 minutes drive
Manchester New Hampshire airport, approximately 1 hour drive
Getting around
You can get here and around with a combination of public transportation and Uber/Lyft (ask me for details), but for broader exploration of New England you'll probably want a car.
