About this home

A rare coastal offering in the heart of Newington, New Hampshire, 71 Shipwright Way is ideally situated within Shackford Point Estates, one of the Seacoast’s most sought-after new luxury communities. Set on over two acres, this newly constructed residence captures expansive, ever-changing views of Great Bay and the Piscataqua River, offering an uncommon sense of privacy, openness, and serenity. Thoughtfully designed for buyers who value refinement, function, and long-term ownership, the home spans nearly 7,000 square feet with four ensuite bedrooms, including a beautifully appointed first-floor primary suite - well suited for both everyday living and generational use. Exceptional craftsmanship and intentional design choices are evident throughout, allowing the home to transition seamlessly from intimate living to large-scale entertaining. Outdoor living is equally compelling, featuring a heated saltwater pool and spa, ideal for gathering with family and friends. Rear water access allows for direct launching of kayaks or paddleboards, creating a natural connection to the surrounding tidal waterways. Despite its peaceful coastal setting, the property offers exceptional convenience- minutes to Portsmouth, Pease International Airport, and Rye’s beaches, with easy access to Route 16, I-95, and Route 1. Recent activity within Shackford Point Estates, including one home recently sold and another under contract, highlights continued demand for well-positioned luxury properties. Combined with Newington’s notably low property tax rate, this home offers lasting value and broad appeal - a timeless coastal retreat designed to be enjoyed today and held for generations.
