This lovely split-level home is ready for your family to move in to their forever home. The highlight is the wonderful custom kitchen built by a well-know local craftsman, that you rarely see today. The kitchen opens out to a private deck for family or larger entertainment. The appliances are all new, and there is a large pantry as well. An open floor plan enters into the living room. The master bedroom is on the first level, as well as a possible 2nd bedroom that can double as a TV room. Downstairs there is a 3rd bedroom, as well as an office that could be have a different use, perhaps a small bedroom. There are so many possibilities for the wonderful property. Outside, there are trees that have been there for many years, as well as perennials. Highbush blueberries and raspberries are also well established on the property. Situated midway between Bangor/Brewer, you can commute to either city in minutes.
