79 Silver St

QUINTESSENTIAL NEW ENGLAND and available for the first time in over 60 years, the Ezra Green homestead is one of the most historical and architecturally significant homes in the City of Dover! Prominently situated at the corner of Silver & Belknap Streets, the property stretches out over half an acre and features lush green grass and bluestone walkways bordered by precisely contoured boxwood hedges and mature maple trees. Inside you'll find impressive wide pine floors, a grand central staircase, original Indian shutters, detailed crown and millwork. Natural light floods in through oversized windows on the home's south side and a large wood paneled sunroom offers a quiet place to relax on the home's west side. The formal dining room offers direct access to the covered porch on the home's east side - a wonderful place to enjoy your morning coffee! Wood burning fireplaces can be found in both the Living Room & Den and the Kitchen offers a morning staircase to the upper level. Upstairs you'll find four generously sized bedrooms that will help explain how Mr. & Mrs. Green were able to raise 13 children in the home from 1780-1847! Extraordinary home, exceptional location! Stroll down city sidewalks into the beating heart of downtown where you can take the kids to the Children's Museum of NH, Henry Law Park or any number of shops and restaurants! Amtrak is a 5 min bike ride and Portsmouth is 15 min by car! Properties of this caliber might come along once in a lifetime...don't wait!
