927 High St, Bath, ME 04530

A lovely light-filled home in the heart of Bath! Recent renovations have preserved and enhanced the character of this classic 1850 Greek Revival. Enjoy cozy evenings around the wood-fired brick masonry stove with built-in pizza oven; entertain in the roomy farmhouse-style kitchen. Five bedrooms in the main house; wood floors throughout. Outside, a bluestone path and patio is bordered by a perennial pollinator garden featuring elderberry bushes, high-bush blueberries, bee-balm, lupines and much more. The generous 1/4 acre yard is great for dogs and children, featuring a small sledding hill perfect for little ones. The attached 3-bed, 2-bath apartment offers many possibilities: source of rental income, home office, art spaces, in-law suite or extra room for everyone who will want to come and visit. Centrally located on the edge of the historic district, downtown Bath is a pleasant four-block walk away. Numerous nature trails and shoreline areas can be reached via a short walk, leisurely bike ride or a short drive. Great dog park right in town. A variety of local farms offer a bounty of organic produce, as well as naturally raised meats, eggs and dairy, which can be purchased at their farm stores and at Bath's year-round, weekly farmer's market. Improvements include: a large masonry stove with metal-bestos chimney, 3 1/2 new baths, roomy farmhouse style kitchen, many new windows, 5-zone heating in the main house, new propane furnace, new heat pump hot water heater, non-toxic surface treatments including milk paint and poly-whey floor coatings and designer wallpapers from Sweden, and Farrow and Ball. Enjoy 'the way life should be' living in Maine's coolest little city, and its thriving downtown with shops; restaurants; brew pubs; Chocolate Church Arts Center; and of course, the mighty Kennebec River. Iconic Popham Beach is only about 20 minutes away. Currently a 2-unit, it is also listed as a single family residential property. See MLS #1452865. Very nice!
