Description

Nestled in a cul-de-sac neighborhood just off High Street, 3 Folsom Street offers an irresistible blend of charm and convenience, located a mere half-mile from downtown Exeter. This beautifully renovated 3-to-4-bedroom Cape-meets-cottage home boasts an architect-designed addition that seamlessly opens the kitchen to the backyard. A spacious mudroom leads into a front-to-back kitchen, dining room, and relaxing seating area. This culinary heart of the home features a ten-foot island space to entertain a good size crowd. A slider provides access to an oversized deck that wraps around the back of the house. The sun-filled living room is a true highlight, complete with a fireplace and French doors that open to the expansive deck. The first floor is completed by an office, which could easily serve as an additional bedroom, and a full bathroom. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a unique "treehouse" ambiance. This suite includes a small bathroom and office that could be converted into a larger bathroom and walk-in closet. The two additional bedrooms are generously sized, featuring built-in bureaus and cozy nooks. These bedrooms share a full bathroom equipped with a soaker tub. The finished basement provides a family room with lots of windows and a fireplace. Outside, the yard features raised vegetable beds and a two-story shed, with a garden shed on the first floor and a delightful playhouse with a balcony on the second. Don't miss all that 3 Folsom has to offer. Agent interest.

    "It would be great if the town was more dog friendly. More parks for dogs. Instead we have a police department post on Facebook that dogs aren’t allowed in a park they have been allowed in for over 10 years, and even has a poop stand."

    "Exeter is a beautiful area and has many things to offer a tourist. It also has bus service, which is convenient. I love walking around the area and I like the fact that on most of the streets they have polls so that you can clean up and dispose of your pets mess. "

    "it is loved by many- does not have too much diversity, so many of the rich town's in the jr. high and high school that go to this school consist of teens who are biased , judgemental and make fun of anyone who is not preppy rich or super athletic . otherwise it is an okay town, close to the beach , (which is absolutely freezing in the water, however absolutely beautiful). you're within driving distance to fields/farms, 30 min from mountains, and close to historic cities. very great rec and school sports/pride. I'm moving south because I just can't do the winters here anymore, it's only warm for a few months and we spend too much time cooped up inside. but my last straw was the cost if living , it has gone through the roof for everything, mostly rentals . compared to the rate of pay and being a small business owner on a street 2 minutes from the Atlantic Ocean, business just wasn't working out. there is definitely a lot of people who adore the seacoast, but mostly those are people who were born here (I was too, but there aren't many opportunities for my generation )"
