About this property

This beautiful house has three+ bedrooms, a study with washer/dryer, a large living room, dining room and kitchen, a three-season porch and gorgeous patio, 1.5 baths, and a large, mostly fenced yard. Parking for two cars in driveway. House is located within walking distance to both downtown Kittery and downtown Portsmouth, NH- hundreds of restaurants, art venues, concerts, and more are right around the corner.
For the last few years I have traveled around the country and the world staying in other people's homes. It's time to share my own wonderful place! :)
Home is perfect for get-togethers or reunions but is not a party house... noise ordinance requires quiet by 11:00.

Perfect Summer Vacation!

Gwen’s home is absolutely charming. Well-equipped, perfectly located, cozy, and comfortable. I can’t rave enough about both Gwen as a host and this property. Walked in to Kittery every morning for coffee and baked goods (oh my!), many lovely walks to Portsmouth, beach at Fort Foster…We will definitely be back! Highly recommend!!!

Lovely and cozy place convenient to everything

Gwen's place is lovely and cozy, filled with books and amenities. Her kitchen is well stocked, so we just cooked and spent most of our time in the house or the garden. Check-in was super easy and Gwen is very communicative. Everything went smoothly. It's a 15-ish min walk to restaurants. I would love another opportunity to stay at her place again.

About the host

Hosted by Gwen Davis

I bought this house in 2005 and have loved living here and sharing it with friends. I have been a school teacher for 24 years but left my full time position to travel, teach abroad, and find other adventures and occupations. I have traveled around the country and to other countries and very much enjoyed the experience of staying in people's homes- much more than hotels. I decided to share my home a bit when I came back. I hope you'll enjoy it!

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with this house the instant I saw it! It's got a lot of room for people to find their own space. The rooms are colorful and cheery and cozy. The location couldn't be better... we can walk to hundreds of restaurants, bike to the beach, walk to concerts... and yet we are in our own private yard and have parking.
