Circa 1820-30s enjoy this charming home and historical Salmon Falls location along the Saco River! Once the childhood home to the renowned writer Kate Douglas Wiggin who later in life moved back to live year-round on Salmon Falls Road Hollis. This Cape style home offers 1344sf of living space with all the period charm of the early 1800s yet with modern amenities. Enjoy a sun filled home with 3 fireplaces, wide pine floors, higher ceilings and built ins. The home has benefited from a kitchen renovation/expansion done in '95-96, a first floor bath as well as three spacious bedrooms & full bath on the 2nd floor. A large village lot, this home offers .78acres with roughly 342' along the Saco River. A quiet road that enjoys many local walkers passing by to admire the history in many of the neighboring homes, one can also walk to the Salmon Falls Country Club just a ½ mile down the road and enjoy 9 holes of golf or 9 holes of disc golf. This home is in need of some updating and addressing some deferred maintenance, but it's a true gem and a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in such a beautiful location. Open showing schedule to start for all buyers and brokers will include Friday 9/10 from 10am-1pm, Saturday 9/11 from 10am-12pm, Sunday 9/12 from 11am-1pm and Monday 9/13 from 1pm-4pm.
