Property Description

Hidden at the end of a private peninsula and surrounded by the peaceful waters of the river, this remarkable two-acre property offers a setting that simply cannot be replicated. Secluded, serene, and immersed in nature, it is the kind of place that inspires creativity, reflection, and a deep connection to the landscape. For decades, this special property served as the home and sanctuary of a beloved local artist, writer, and performer whose work was shaped by the beauty and tranquility found here. Though the original home was lost to fire, a rare opportunity now exists. The grandfathered footprint allows a new owner to build within the dimensions of the former residence--an invaluable advantage on a waterfront property where today's regulations would make such a placement impossible. Imagine waking to river views, watching eagles soar overhead, launching a kayak from your shoreline, or simply enjoying the privacy afforded by this unique peninsula setting. Every season brings its own beauty, from vibrant summer sunsets to the quiet stillness of winter along the water's edge. While the property feels wonderfully removed from the demands of everyday life, it remains surprisingly accessible, offering short travel times to Portsmouth, Boston and New York. Whether your vision is a striking architectural statement, a year-round residence, or a legacy retreat for generations to come, this is a rare chance to create something extraordinary in a private location that has inspired for decades.Some properties are purchased; others are stewarded - this is one of them.
