Description

Every now and then serendipity makes an appearance and you find everything on your wish list in one place. Intelligently designed, thoughtfully built and located on the southern end of Lincolnville, this 3 or 4 bedroom house embodies the feeling of home. From the front porch, where you can watch the sunrise to the huge deck in back and the daily sunset show and everything in between, this very comfortable residence lives large. Main gathering room under a soaring ceiling spans the width of the house. Large east-facing windows bathe the space with natural light and you have a number of options for use and furniture placement. Front door naturally divides this front room and the kitchen overlooks it from over the extended breakfast bar. An excellent under-the-stair pantry and island offer both storage and additional prep space and if you like to cook, there's room for 2 or more to work together. A sun-drenched family room is where the owners enjoy movie nights, story readings and sporting events. French doors open to a small screened porch so you can invite the breeze in off the nearby San Sebastian River. Just off the kitchen a mini mud room opens to a bathroom, 4th bedroom complete with Murphy bed and the side door offering a private entrance to overnight guests. Upstairs, a laundry room is handily located between the 3 bedrooms. Main bedroom is en-suite, with 2 large windows, private bath and walk-in closet. Bedrooms #2 and 3 are in the northwest and southeast corners respectively. Access to the backyard can be had from the family room and 4th bedroom. Measuring 20' x 26, the deck stands in as a year-round outdoor living and dining room - perfect for grilling, sitting around the firepit, enjoying the perk of the shade provided by the mature tree canopy - you'll be out here a lot! Parking is easy here - long driveway can hold 3 cars and the single car garage will keep your favorite car tucked away with ample room for bikes, kayaks and beach toys. From your front door, it's a 2 block walk or bike ride to the community gardens, the neighborhood park for a game of hoops, the Galimore pool for summer swimming and the Freedom Park where you'll find the coolest chimes available for everyone to play. Whether you're thinking full-time living, second home or a mix of part-time personal use and investment, we think you will be delighted to hang your hat here. Welcome to your new life....
