14 School St, Boothbay Harbor, ME 04538

This downtown Boothbay Harbor home harkens back to time when designers added simple graceful touches to well built and practical homes with attention given to details like chandelier type pendant lights with ceiling medallions, graceful curved bannisters, ceramic tiled kitchen countertops and wainscoting. The entrance to a home was made more attractive by a simple decorative gable and the addition of brick walkways to invite guests into the home. This is one of those simple yet elegant homes. Just steps from the harbor and a quick walk along the sidewalks bring you to the shops and restaurants and services of the downtown where you can still run your errands of going to the post office, make a deposit at the bank, have lunch by the water and pick up something at the bakery on your way home. The home has three bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor, kitchen, office, family room and formal living and dining rooms on the first floor and another full bath with laundry. There are garage spaces in the basement with still enough room for a workbench and a modest wine cellar. The backyard is fenced in to keep pets and other little animals from wandering away. Much of the house faces south bring the natural light in to the first floor rooms. Cast iron radiators provide heat through much of the house and is supplemented with a direct vent heater in the family room. There is a full wet bar and lots of built in cabinets throughout the first floor for all of your storage needs. The exterior has been recently painted a lovely shade of yellow to help it stand out even more.
