About This Home
VERY Motivated Seller! This charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath raised ranch has everything you need—and plenty of room to grow! Located just minutes from the University of Maine at Machias and the heart of town, it's perfectly situated for both convenience and a bit of peace and quiet.
Inside, you'll find a sunny living room with a big picture window that lets in tons of natural light. The kitchen features sleek granite countertops and lots of cabinet space, ideal for cooking up your favorite meals. Just off the kitchen, there's a sweet sun porch where you can kick back and enjoy your morning coffee or evening breeze.
Outside, the huge backyard is a real highlight, with beautiful apple and pear trees, and plenty of space for gardening, entertaining, or just hanging out. The landscaping is already done—you just get to enjoy it! The property also has a Generator Hookup!
The basement has loads of potential too, with tons of space that could be finished off for a family room, home gym, or whatever you need.
If you're looking for a place that's move-in ready with a lot to offer—and close to both campus and town—this could be the one!
