This well-maintained home is in fantastic shape, has a beautiful fenced in yard, and has had numerous recent improvements. It has a two-car garage with plenty of extra parking. There is also a great bonus room hidden away in the basement. It is conveniently located on Kennebec Rd. and is just minutes away from downtown Hampden and Bangor. It is also surrounded by large, wooded lots that are great for anyone wants to have plenty of privacy. Hampden is one of the hottest spots around so this home will not last on the market for very long. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity!
