The de Rochemont Homestead was Newington Village's last Post Office. Built by Christopher Rymes for his family about 1825, the home has been completely renovated. Spacious open concept kitchen, breakfast nook with outdoor patio access, and family room area with cozy wood stove are perfect for large gatherings and entertainment.
The volume of the first-floor rooms with their high ceilings, tall windows, and wood floors brings a feeling of grandeur to the home. A formal dining room is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen. A large living room and den complete the first floor. The primary bedroom boasts a beautiful private bath and laundry area as well as a large walk-in closet. 3 additional bedrooms and a guest bath complete the 2nd floor. On the third floor you'll find another bedroom, a rec/exercise area, and a full bath.
Accessed separately, a private one-bedroom studio apartment with vaulted ceiling, kitchen, bath, and laundry provides many possibilities. Fox Point, a 120-acre parcel of protected conservation land is located just down the road from The de Rochemont Homestead. Adjacent to Fox Point is Newington Town Park with hiking and biking trails, boat launch and dock, moorings, and picnic area – all available to Newington residents only. Located a short walk to historic Newington Village, 7/10 of a mile from Great Bay Marina and 15 minutes to Downtown Portsmouth and Dover, this charming and historic home will have your ''stamp'' of approval.
