Description

Wonderful 1950s home that enjoys one-level living surrounded by nature! Established perennial gardens frame the patio which is perfect for dining al fresco, relaxation and admiring the evening sunsets. In June, the lupines grace the backyard along the split-rail fence with 2 birdhouses that are currently home to a family of bluebirds! This well-maintained home enjoys many updates from the 1970s and even newer improvements in the last few years which include a new roof, septic tank, hot water tank, well water expansion tank, spray-foam insulation on cellar walls and replacement leach field. The 30 foot deep 2 car garage contains a heated office which would also be ideal for a workshop or studio. The living room features large windows and a wood-burning fireplace with insert-a favorite during winter or on a cool summer evening. The generous dining room can accommodate a large gathering with easy access to the charming kitchen which boasts ample cupboards and pantry storage space. No house is complete without a mudroom and this one is spacious with double closets and dedicated space for the laundry! The 4 season sunroom, with direct entry from the 2 car garage includes a wood-stove and opens to the patio through large sliders. A perfect home for those looking to down-size or just starting out as first-time home buyers. Close to all the conveniences of the downtown center in the twin villages of Newcastle-Damariscotta including the town marina, library, numerous restaurants, shops, markets and the local schools and award-winning hospital.
