This absolutely stunning 1918 Craftsman style Bungalow is a rare find indeed. This home is filled with the kind of detail & craftsmanship that's hard to find today. When people say ''They don't make them like that anymore.'' this is what they're talking about! From the direct water views to the beautifully preserved woodwork, stone work, stained glass & historic details, you won't find another like this! Interior freshly painted. In 1898 John Hollinrake came to ME from England to help manage the mills that were the heart of the Sanford/Springvale area. In 1918 after establishing himself & becoming a key member of the community, he built a home befitting of his stature and success. That home stands today with its original grandeur intact and it's ready for you to move in & make it your own! The glassed in 3 season sunroom & front porch are punctuated by stately stonework and overlook a sprawling yard & pond where the town fireworks display takes place every 4th of July. How amazing to relax and watch the moon rise over the water from the comfort & warmth of your own home, all while just a few blocks from Hannaford Supermarket, downtown Sanford/Springvale & major commuter routes. On the first floor you'll find 2 bedrooms with surprisingly large closets, a dining room with beautiful built ins, a living room and a large kitchen that leads to an updated full bath & incredible office w/ stunning wood wainscotting & blinds. Through arched doorway into the foyer with its stained glass windows and up the grand central staircase, you'll find two more bedrooms and a ¼ bath plus a huge attic space for storage. A large finished basement area with ¾ quarter bath give you even more room to stretch out. Even the laundry room is lined with rich & beautiful woodwork. A 2 car tandem garage is a bonus. Don't miss the opportunity to own a historic gem that you can call your forever home! Showings to begin at the open house on 11/7/20 from 10:30-12:30. Masks required. 6 people at once.
