Available for the first time since it was built in 1986, 78 Cornelius Drive is a well-cared-for 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom Colonial set on a generous corner lot in one of Portsmouth's most desirable neighborhoods. Ideally situated just off Indian Avenue and within walking distance to Pebble Beach and the waterfront, this original-owner home offers over half an acre of land in a prime coastal location. The first floor features a thoughtful layout, including a living room with access to an expansive south-facing deck, an eat-in kitchen with center island, a cozy family room with fireplace and garage access, a formal dining room, laundry area, and a half bathroom. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a sun-filled primary suite with southeastern exposure. A bonus storage room or walk-in-closet above the garage adds functionality. Rarely does an opportunity come up to purchase in this coveted coastal enclave offering excellent long-term value and potential for future updates.
