18 Meadow Rd, Arrowsic, ME 04530

On your way to visit the midcoast you may have breezed right by one of the area's prettiest towns. Arrowsic, an island across the Bath bridge, just past, and southeast of town is bounded by beautiful salt marshes and the Kennebec and Sassanoa rivers. Whitmore's Landing is just a few minutes to downtown Bath, but a world away. This thoughtfully planned community laid out over attractive terrain features large lots with good separation between. A common area enjoys a woodland path down to a well-maintained dock on a broad section of the Kennebec. The home offered is a well designed post & beam, open floor plan cape. Currently owned by a devoted gardener and an attentive mechanical engineer, the grounds are lovely and the structures all are diligently kept and regularly improved. The open floor plan has a first floor full bath and laundry adjacent to the study which could serve as a downstairs bedroom should the need arise. The rest of the downstairs is fully open with a wood burning fireplace in the living room, an ample dining area, classic triangular flow kitchen, and a three season screen porch leading out to the wrap-around deck. A trail through the woods leads to a retreat cabin with heat and a gas cook top perfect for a remote studio or just a meditation. A small meadow has been cleared for added gardening opportunities. There is a conveniently located two-car garage with overhead storage accessed by stairs plus a three-bay equipment shed nearby. A 330 sq. ft. heated workshop in the walk-out basement is just the thing for projects or gardening. Very near the Doubling Point lighthouse, not far from the grand beaches at Reid State Park, or the beauty of Five Islands this offering has the exceptional buildings, the proximities, and the waterfront access to fully take advantage of life in the midcoast.
