Sited on a lovely 1.75 acres, this property abuts acres of conservation land. The well-kept interiors are light and bright and feature hardwood flooring throughout. The first level features a country style eat-in kitchen equipped with a gas range, a formal dining room, a study that is currently being utilized as a first floor bedroom, and a living room that boasts a large picture window and high ceilings allowing for wonderful natural light. Finishing the first floor is a large newly built bathroom with a roll-in tile shower, full laundry and sliding barn door. Accessed through the front of the kitchen is a farmer's porch which offers beautiful sunset views, additionally through the back of the kitchen is a sunroom which opens to a large deck overlooking the rolling field. The second level features 3 interconnecting bedrooms, an updated full bath and a small office/den that attaches to the second level of the adjoining barn. The barn is 2 levels and is a great open space for a workshop, storage or could be refinished into an ideal space for entertaining. The second floor gives access to a walk-up third floor attic with windows. Many upgrades have been made to the home, and with some love and an imaginative eye, this home can be quickly restored to its original splendor with a modern flare. The location of the home is close to famed Kennebunkport and only minutes to 1-95.
