From the outside, it's a classic Cape. Inside…there's more than you expect. Welcome to this 3-bedroom, 1.75 bath home set on 1.5 level acres in a peaceful Northwood setting, offering 2,446 sq ft of thoughtfully expanded living space - plus bonus areas you need to experience in person. Enter through the oversized 2-car garage and head upstairs into the heart of the home - a spacious kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and a large portable island perfect for coffee, casual meals, or gathering with friends. Just beyond, the home opens into the impressive 28x28 vaulted great room addition. This Expansive Great Room Retreat features soaring ceilings, recessed lighting, surround sound wiring, a striking stone gas fireplace, and a dramatic arched window that fills the room with natural light. Movie nights, game days, and holidays - this is the space everyone will gravitate toward. Off the kitchen sits a dedicated office - ideal for remote work, hobbies, or a quiet reading space - while the dining area welcomes guests near the main entry. A full bath with laundry completes the main level for everyday ease. Upstairs offers two guest bedrooms, a second full bath, and a primary suite with walk-in closet. But wait…there's more. The lower level opens up possibilities - a finished gym area, a private sauna to unwind, plus additional space for projects, storage, or whatever your lifestyle demands. Outside, enjoy the 1.5-acre lot with dedicated play and picnic area - space to run, host, relax, and breathe. Picture summer afternoons under the open sky and evenings gathered around the firepit, toasting s'mores and sharing stories long after sunset. The paved driveway offers parking for 6+ vehicles, making entertaining effortless. Wonderful location with convenient access - approximately 30-45 minutes to Concord / Portsmouth / Manchester.
