About This Home
As of February 2022Beautiful contemporary Cape with an impressive amount of space that offers five bedrooms, and four full bathrooms. The original home's first floor open concept K/DR/LR layout with den/TV room and full bathroom dovetails seamlessly with a fabulous 2013 addition that includes an office with French doors and large mud room off the attached 2-car garage. The den or office could be modified and serve as a first-floor bedroom, if needed. There are four bedrooms on the second floor, including a grand primary bedroom en suite over the garage with a huge walk-in closet; an additional full bathroom; and laundry room. A daylight walkout basement with game/family room; bedroom with egress window; and full bathroom. Antique stone walls border the 1-acre lot, that is just the right size--big enough for gardening and games but not so large that it's burden to maintain. Enjoy the benefits of living in Bowdoinham: a convivial and thriving farming community on Merrymeeting Bay with a public boat landing; waterfront park where there are free weekly concerts, and a farmer's market during the summer months; Community Center; Art Center; wonderful town library; and future waterfront park. Live here and enjoy the best of both worlds: rural Maine living, and a location that is 40 minutes to Portland; 20 minutes to Brunswick; and 20 minutes to Augusta and/or L/A. A fabulous opportunity!
