About This Home

As of December 2022

Here is a great opportunity to own a charming cape with a full dormer, in the VERY desirable Bay Park neighborhood. This bright and sunny 4 bedroom, 2 full bath home is move in ready, and has been lovingly cared for and maintained by the current owners. You are sure to appreciate all the upgrades that have been done in 2022. A new roof was installed, granite counter tops in the kitchen, hardwood floors have been finished, new carpet in both 2nd floor bedrooms, fresh paint throughout, upgrades in both bathrooms, all windows have been upgraded, two of which have been enlarged for views of the private back yard bird sanctuary, full of mature trees, shrubs, and summer gardens full of bee balm, evening primrose, and lilies. Enjoy cook outs, or your morning coffee on your back deck. The spacious, direct-entry two car garage is perfect for your vehicles and toys, and has room for storage as well. The dry basement has a work bench area, area to work out or watch tv, while enjoying the warmth of your wood stove in the colder months. The Topsham Recreational trails are minutes down the road. You will enjoy the miles and miles of quiet trails that wind through the woods, and are great for hiking, jogging, walking the dog, and fishing in the stocked ponds. In the winter months, you can cross-country ski, snowshoe, and snowmobile. You are less than a 5 minute drive to town, 30 minutes to Portland, and less than an half hour to Popham Beach & Reid State Park. All this home is waiting for, is you!!
