Use your imagination with this 1,400 sq. ft. cape sitting on 2.75 acres of beautiful, untouched Maine woods. Behind your road front home, the woods lead straight back to 114' of waterfront on the Kennebec River. When you hike towards your water frontage, enjoy the potential sighting of Bald Eagles soaring high above. This natural wooded habitat is alive with wildlife. Pull up a chair on the back deck and enjoy the peace and serenity of the Maine woods. The first floor offers a dining room, kitchen, full bath, bedroom and sunroom looking off into the woods. The second floor offers a half bath with two bedrooms. The basement includes a work area and bonus room. You can protect your vehicle by pulling it into the one bay garage located under the home. This Cape is surrounded by two dwarf lilac bushes, perennials, and 2 varieties of azaleas and a rhododendron shrub marking the property line.
