About this House

**Price Improvement and Exceptional Value Under 1.5 Miles to Downtown Dover! This 4-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on a beautiful .83-acre lot with a backyard that truly sets this property apart. The layout features one bedroom on the first floor, a big eat-in kitchen, living room, dining room, 3/4 bath and entry area. Three additional bedrooms are upstairs. There's plenty of space to work with here! The main portion of the home dates back to 1775, and with that comes character - and a few quirks, including some uneven floors.
