Nestled between Cumberland Foreside and Cumberland Center, your new home awaits! This antique cape has had numerous updates by the current owner including a beautiful chef ready kitchen with Monson slate counter tops, a loft and sunroom addition with radiant heat plus updated systems. The sunroom and loft were designed to seamlessly accent the current space and were constructed from an antique timber frame salvaged from another home in Cumberland, circa 1840. Original floors can be found throughout the home as well as King Pine boards in the entry way. The generous first-floor primary bedroom runs from front to back with a sitting area, walk in closet, plus first floor laundry. The living room is accented by a wood stove, great for augmenting the heat or taking the chill out of a spring morning. The 2nd floor offers a bedroom plus studio or office space. Numerous birds visit the private backyard complete with a patio and raised garden beds. The farmer's porch ties it all together. All of this plus an oversized 2 car garage with ample storage above. Minutes to the town center, Twin Brooks, nature preserves and less than a mile to the town beach! Welcome home to Cumberland!
Over an acre of land on this unique property in Cumberland. Perfect as a one bedroom with lots of space. The upstairs has very low ceiling at the eves, making the space a bit awkward to navigate.
