About This Home
As of September 2021This Orono home is 40 years loved by only the third owner. This sunny, light & bright home with half an acre is located in perfect proximity to the University & lovely downtown Orono. Have you ever seen a cape home with a 390 square foot living room? Tremendous space. The oriental rug is believed to be original to the home & has been conveyed to each subsequent owner. This is a 2 bedroom home but with vision (& a dustpan dormer added to the second floor), a primary suite would be a super add. Though perfectly livable as is, a few updates would add to the appeal. Large backyard with many possibilities
