I would live here, and that is not something I say about every house. 558 Province Road is an older New England Cape with the kind of warmth, light, and character buyers keep hoping to find. Set in a country-feeling Belmont location close to town, lakes, beaches, shopping, and everyday conveniences, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers charm, useful space, and a yard that deserves attention. The main house has cedar shakes, plank floors, exposed beams, wooden blinds, sandstone countertops, and an artsy, comfortable style that feels collected rather than manufactured. The kitchen offers stainless appliances including a JennAir French-door refrigerator/freezer, Bosch dishwasher, Frigidaire appliances, and propane gas stove. Mini splits provide cooling and supplemental comfort, with oil baseboard heat. Both bathrooms include walk-in showers, and one features a spacious corner whirlpool bath. Sliders lead to the rear yard, and an interior door connects to the screened porch, a lovely extension of the living space. Outside, the property offers an attached two-car garage, easy-turn driveway, large storage shed, flat lawn, shady areas, established plantings, and a deer-proof fenced inner yard. Trees along the property edges help create privacy and a natural buffer from the road. There was previously an inground pool, now filled in, with electric still running to that area, offering future outdoor possibilities. Yes, a little TLC is needed, as expected with an older home, and the home has been priced accordingly. But the setting, style, light, yard, and overall feel make the opportunity easy to see. Buyers interested in short-term rental use should confirm all zoning, septic, permitting, tax, and licensing requirements directly with the Town of Belmont and the State of New Hampshire. The property may offer STR potential, but no STR approval is represented. A home with personality, practicality, and a real sense of place. Showings begin at the Open House on Saturday, July
