About this home

Enjoy captivating water views & proximity to Prescott Park at 114 Mechanic Street, a stately Antique Colonial in Portsmouth’s historic South End. Meticulously restored from stem to stern with exceptional craftsmanship by Auger Builders, this distinctive property blends preserved period character with thoughtfully completed modern improvements. Inside, original pine floors have been beautifully refinished, while many architectural details have been retained, including four fireplaces, one of which is currently functional. Extensive updates include new high-efficiency central heating and air conditioning, new ENERGY STAR® stainless steel appliances, renovated bathrooms, new electrical wiring and lighting throughout, and fresh interior paint. The result is a home that maintains the warmth and character of its historic origins while offering updated systems and finishes for today’s lifestyle. Step outside to a newly renovated pocket garden designed to make the most of the property’s outdoor space. Granite-curbed garden beds, refreshed landscaping, a brick patio, and fencing create an inviting setting for crisp fall mornings, outdoor dining, or relaxing at the end of the day. The location is equally compelling. Set in Portsmouth’s South End waterfront neighborhood, the property is nestled among historic architecture and colorful homes with views toward the Piscataqua River. Waterfront parks, downtown Portsmouth, and New Castle are all nearby, providing convenient access to the Seacoast’s restaurants, cafés, boutiques, galleries, theaters, cultural attractions, beaches, and recreation. With its water views, restored historic details, substantial system upgrades, private garden setting, and close proximity to both downtown and the waterfront, 114 Mechanic Street offers a distinctive opportunity to experience Portsmouth living as the Seacoast transitions into fall.
