Within walking distance to everything - restaurants & shopping, theater, coffee shops, bookstore, library, boat ramp & more. Beautiful period details fill the home, including wide pumpkin pine floors, original doors & hardware, 2 staircases and many fireplaces. As you enter the front door and entry, the living room is to the left and dining room with fireplace to the right. The dining room leads into the cozy den or breakfast room with built-ins and fireplace. From there, continue into the eat-in kitchen with walk in pantry and access to the side door & driveway. A breezeway off the kitchen adds additional storage and enclosed access to the 2-car garage. Upstairs, 2 large front bedrooms each have a fireplace and lovely floors. A central family room off the bedrooms is a great place for gathering and relaxing. A 3rd bedroom has access to the back stairs and a cedar closet. This property, over 150 years old, is ready for the next generation of stewards to bring back its original luster and beauty. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history in the center of Mid-Coast Maine.
