About This Home
EXTREMELY RARE LOT nestled in the heart of Dover, the historic Ezra Green Homestead is one of the most architecturally significant and historically rich homes in the city! Set on a spacious half-acre corner lot at Silver & Belknap Streets, this fully fenced property boasts beautiful greenery, manicured boxwoods, mature maples, and elegant bluestone walkways. Step inside to discover timeless features, including stunning wide pine floors, a grand central staircase, intricate crown moldings and millwork. Original Indian shutters adorn the windows, and the home is bathed in natural light. On the west side, a charming wood-paneled sunroom provides a serene retreat, office or home gym. The formal dining room leads directly to a covered porch on the east side—perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or an afternoon tea. The home also features a wood-burning fireplace in both the living room and den, while the kitchen offers a convenient morning staircase leading to the second level. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and a small reading nook on the second floor, with two additional bedrooms on the home’s third floor. The Green’s raised 13 children here between 1780 and 1847!
