About This Home

As of June 2026

Nestled on 5.20± acres at the end of a private dirt road, this move-in-ready 3-bedroom, 2-bath Cape has been recently updated throughout. Upgrades include an updated kitchen with new cabinetry, a butcher block island, new appliances, and a sleek composite sink; refreshed bathrooms with new vanities and tile flooring; a new heat pump; a new hot water heater; added basement insulation; and a brand-new pressure-treated deck. Stay warm in the winter or take the edge off cool summer days in the living room, featuring bamboo floors and a propane fireplace. Enjoy the ease of entertaining in the open kitchen and dining area, with sliding glass doors to the back deck--ideal for gatherings that move effortlessly from indoor dinners to evenings outdoors. The first floor is complete with a primary bedroom with a reach-in closet and a full bath with a linen closet. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms--each with its own skylight--are complemented by a full bath with built-in storage and a soaking tub. The full basement is dry and offers ample storage, built-in shelving, a laundry area, and the potential for additional living space. Outside, a generous yard on all four sides provides ample room to spread out and enjoy the outdoors, with a back deck, playground, and a welcoming front seating area that adds to the home's charm. Low-maintenance perennial gardens include iris, hyacinths, daffodils, hydrangea, creeping phlox, Rose of Sharon, and clematis, bringing color and seasonal interest throughout. This property offers a rare combination of privacy and convenience just minutes to U.S. Route One, 6 minutes to downtown Bath, 12 minutes to Wiscasset, 16 minutes to Maine Street Brunswick, and 43 minutes to Portland.
