Welcome to your serene riverfront retreat on Barrett Way in Ellsworth, Maine. This exceptional ranch-style home, custom-designed and built in 2001, offers 1,560 square feet of elegant one-level living combined with accessible features, all set against the picturesque backdrop of the Union River. The home currently has two bedrooms, but the septic is designed for three bedrooms and the heated, walk out daylight basement could easily be finished to add another bedroom and more. The attached two car garage conveniently provides direct access to the living space.
As you enter this thoughtfully designed home, you'll immediately appreciate the natural light streaming through the strategically placed Anderson Windows. These windows not only provide stunning river views but also enhance the home's open concept living space. The radiant heating ensures comfort throughout the year, while the 36'' wide pocket doors, 17'' high toilets, curbless shower, and level door handles demonstrate a commitment to ergonomic and handicapped-accessible design.
The interior of the home has a clean modern design with the charm of pocket doors and the warmth of beautiful maple wood trim throughout.
One of the standout features of this property is the 10 x 17 four-season sunroom, which boasts cathedral ceilings and serves as an inviting space to relax and enjoy the beauty of every season. The sunroom's expansive windows offer views of the river and the lush, landscaped grounds, blending indoor and outdoor living seamlessly.
The daylight walk-out basement adds significant value and versatility to the property. Heated and ready for customization, this space could easily be transformed into a guest suite, workshop, or a family/game room to suit your needs.
Set on 1.6 surveyed acres with approximately 344 feet of frontage on the saltwater section of the Union River, this property provides direct boat access to Union River Bay, Blue Hill Bay, and the waters surrounding Mount Desert Island.
