Sheafe House was built in 1827 for U.S Senator Sheafe. Originally, the building was 2 townhouses, which were combined to create one grand building. The support beams throughout the Sheafe House were young trees when General George Washington led the Continental Army during the American Revolution. This home is steps to all that Portsmouth has to offer including restaurants and shopping, Strawbery Bank, Prescott Park & Market Square. Sheafe House is a very well run, professionally-managed association. Arrive home to your deeded off-street parking space and take the elevator up to your third floor unit overlooking the city.
