Property Description

This listing courtesy of Matthew Blier, Coldwell Banker Realty Bedford NH

Discover a true GEM at 40 Taft Road in Portsmouth, NH. This entry-level home is a rare treasure in one of the Seacoast’s most desirable cities. With a brand-new roof already in place, the big work is done—leaving you free to add your personal style and updates. Perfect for first-time homebuyers, this property offers an affordable way to plant roots in Portsmouth. It’s equally ideal for downsizers or retirees seeking the ease of single-story living. The manageable floor plan makes daily life simple, while the fenced-in backyard provides privacy, space for pets, or room to relax outdoors. The location is unbeatable—within walking distance of the Dondero Elementary School, just minutes to downtown Portsmouth’s shops, restaurants, and waterfront, and less than 2.5 miles from Rye Beach for sun and sand. Easy access to Interstate 95 means commuting or traveling is a breeze, all while enjoying a quiet neighborhood setting. Opportunities like this—an affordable, single-level home in Portsmouth with a new roof, fenced yard, school access, and proximity to both the beach and downtown—are few and far between. Whether you’re starting out, simplifying life, or investing in a rare find, this home is a true Seacoast treasure. Assisted showings only.
