About this home
This is the first time this storybook house has been listed for sale since it was built in 1926. Looking for a new caretaker to update and enjoy. Set back off of Main street with a brook running along the back of the property and open space behind, a very private setting close to town. Enter the home through a curved rustic front door. The generous entry has original hardwood floors and woodwork throughout the house. The focal point of the living room is a wood-burning fireplace with a mantel from the famous brownstone quarries of Portland. French doors lead out to a screened porch and a patio overlooking the brook. There is a formal dining room with a small alcove. Head up the stairs past a cozy window seat to 2 generous bedrooms. The foyer area between the 2 bedrooms has been used as an artist studio in the past. The second floor has a small sunroom and a full bath. There is a basement and a long driveway with ample parking.
