So much history, love, and memories are seeped into the walls of this quintessential Maine home. Once the local parsonage, the outside speaks of the modest 1900s classic New Englander, solidly built with a touch of elegance and a lot of charm. Inside is the cozy coastal cottage you’ve been looking for.
Sunlight floods the rooms and the gentle ocean breezes provide cooling comfort all summer long. This easy to maintain lot is tucked into a half acre, with all of the comforts you’d expect from a decade of loving care from it’s current owners. Gather around the firepit in the evenings, get the sauna going for a little relaxation, or fill it with backyard chickens if that’s your desire. The raised garden beds contain rich organic soil built up over the past 10 years. And the landscaping has been crafted with both privacy in mind and the feeling of expanse and openness.
Gorgeous herringbone wood and pumpkin pine floors grace the interior. As well as lots of little features reminiscent of 1900s craftsmanship. The house is just filled with character with a curved wall, fantastic windows, wonderfully restored woodwork throughout, and a big eat-in sun filled kitchen!
The location is just perfect with the beach only a mile walk through Indian Trail, with the conveniences of New Harbor Hill just around the corner. The ice pond is in view, and the Harbor isn’t too far beyond. This year-round home would also make a nice summer getaway. There’s even a possibility for a first floor bedroom! There are too many updates to list here, but this house has been transformed into a truly special home. See the listing here.
