About This Home
As of January 2023Located 10 minutes from Belfast, and a short drive to the restaurants, art galleries and shops in the quaint seaside town of Searsport, this cozy 2 bedroom, 1 bath shingle style cottage is perfectly suited for either a starter home or seasonal get away.
Situated on a spacious 2.5 acre lot bordered by mature woods and a creek, this lovingly maintained home features many recent updates. Heating and cooling is provided by a heat pump while a wood stove in the living room creates a perfect place to relax in the winter. Additional updates include an energy efficient heat pump water heater and water softener. The Kitchen features a new reverse osmosis water filter system and stainless steel range hood. A mud room adjacent to the Kitchen features a new, full sized LG stacked washer and dryer. New paint throughout and new flooring in the Living Room and Kitchen complete the move-in ready package.
The property also features a fully insulated and conditioned detached garage with single stall parking and a separate space that's perfect for either a workshop or home office. The yard features raised vegetable and flower garden beds and a separate fabric 14' x 32' arched carport providing a generous sheltered space for additional vehicles as well as a fabric 8' x 8' shed.
