About this home
Located in the heart of Downtown Portsmouth, this urban-chic two-bedroom condo offer in-town living. The historic Sheafe House, built in 1827, has stood at the center of town for nearly two centuries. A comprehensive renovation in 2005 thoughtfully brought the building into the modern era with the addition of an elevator and sprinkler system, while preserving timeless architectural details such as exposed brick and period character. Accessible by elevator or private entry, this garden-level residence is in excellent condition and features hardwood floors, built-in shelving, and an open-concept living space ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and an en-suite full bath, creating a comfortable and functional retreat. Additional amenities include natural gas heat, air conditioning, in-unit laundry, and a professionally managed association — all contributing to effortless downtown living. During the warmer months, relax on the granite front steps and enjoy classic Portsmouth people-watching. Just steps from your door are The Music Hall, Prescott Park, award-winning restaurants, boutique shopping, and waterfront attractions. Parking options are conveniently located directly across the street and nearby. At this price point, it is hard to find a better combination of historic charm, modern convenience, and premier Downtown Portsmouth location....
