Built in 2019 by a respected local builder for his own family, 13 Vanderbilt Lane is a showcase of thoughtful craftsmanship, refined detail, and modern living. Set on a flat, landscaped half-acre parcel in a central Portsmouth neighborhood, this 3,176-square-foot colonial combines quality construction with timeless design and a warm, livable layout.
The exterior sets the tone immediately, featuring a wide covered front porch, expanded driveway, maintenance-free James Hardie siding, and Andersen windows. Inside, the main level offers a welcoming sense of space with nine-foot ceilings and an open-concept floor plan centered around a stunning chef’s kitchen. The kitchen features a ten-foot island, Frigidaire Gallery appliances, leathered granite countertops, and a fully appointed butler’s pantry with a wall oven, beverage refrigerator, and custom cabinetry. A formal dining room provides a classic setting for gatherings, while the spacious living room with its gas fireplace and custom built-ins serves as the heart of the home.
Practicality meets design in the custom mudroom, which includes built-in storage and a half bath, seamlessly connecting to a heated, epoxy-coated two-car garage, which is a car enthusiast’s dream. The garage is equipped with a French door refrigerator, cabinetry, hot and cold water faucet, and a generator plug, creating a space that is as functional as it is refined. If you need a workshop space, look no further than 13 Vanderbilt Lane.
Upstairs, the thoughtful layout continues with four bedrooms, including two primary suites, each with a private bathroom. The additional bedrooms share a well-appointed full bath with a double vanity and six-foot soaking tub. A dedicated laundry room completes the second floor, making that household task much easier and more convenient than trooping down to the basement.
Outdoor living was clearly a priority in the home’s design. A south-facing deck leads to a spacious paver patio, ideal for entertaining or relaxing in the private backyard. The property is enhanced by professional landscaping, an irrigation system with app control, and mature plantings that frame the home beautifully throughout the seasons.
Behind the scenes, this residence delivers the quality expected of a builder’s personal home. Features include a 200-amp underground electrical service, central air conditioning, on-demand water heater, whole-house water filtration, blown cellulose insulation, and meticulous craftsmanship throughout. The home has also been pre-inspected for peace of mind, underscoring its exceptional condition and attention to detail.
“Newer construction opportunities in Portsmouth, especially at this price point, always attract strong interest,” said listing agent Tyler Bernadyn of REMAX Results. “What makes this home stand out is the level of care and craftsmanship that went into creating it. Because it was built for the builder’s own family, every finish and detail was chosen with longevity, comfort, and quality in mind. You can feel that intention the moment you step inside.”
