As of September 2018

Classic 1960 in-town cape with super private back yard, two-tier deck, patio and pergola. 1st floor master bedroom w/bath. Sweet living room w/hardwood floors & Jotul Wood Stove. Front to back upstairs bedroom, nice corner bedroom and full second floor bath. Just imagine walking to downtown Freeport or hopping on a the train to Boston or Portland for the night and not needing a car! This 3 bedroom 2.5 bath home needs a little TLC but is a bargain at this reduced price.
