About This Home
As of July 2022Nestled at the dead end of a quiet downtown neighborhood, this turn of the century colonial New Englander maintains its original elegance with a plethora of renovations, transformations and updated finishes. The traditional ''many rooms'' floor plan has become open, beautiful living space that is defined yet flows effortlessly from one space to the next with sight lines from end to end. A bright, airy home that is accentuated throughout by oversized windows, original moldings and classic architectural details blended into a modern farm kitchen, renovated baths that is all tied together by wood and tile flooring. Surprises like a first floor laundry/bath, a custom pottery barn tiled mudroom with walk-in closet, a sun drenched office nook are features that complete the ultimate first floor living space where the dining room is flanked on three sides by the formal living room, huge kitchen and spacious family room with coal stove, stone hearth and vaulted ceiling. Follow the dramatic, open staircase to a two bath, three bedroom second floor that features tin ceilings and hardwood from beginning to end! A master bedroom with a walk-in and a bonus closet is completed by an adjacent master bath featuring a double vanity and an oversized stone tiled, walk-in shower. Whether relaxing on the farmer's porch or gathering around a picnic table, you'll enjoy the privacy of a dead end location and a yard bursting with mature shrubbery and natural landscape features. You'll also enjoy being only steps away from the banks of the Salmon Falls River. With a brand new septic system installed 12-2021, this well maintained, spacious, move-in ready home is a must see!
