This exquisite turn of the century Victorian home boasts 4 BR/3.5 BA spanning three sprawling floors. Located in the peaceful, quintessential Maine town of Limerick surrounded by rolling hills and lakes, this stunning castle, complete with a turret, is like no other. Completely and purposefully restored years ago, this home offers updated systems while maintaining its original, breathtaking charm such as handcrafted trim, mahogany pocket doors, custom window seats, and more. The flow of the main floor is easy to navigate beginning with the kitchen, which provides ample cabinet space, new appliances, and a convenient look through opening into the living room. Looking out the light-filled dining room windows reveals the splendor of rolling hills. One of three gas fireplaces will keep you cozy in the cooler months in the den/family room. The living room, with another gas fireplace, rounds out the spacious main floor. Mahogany pocket doors allow for privacy, if desired, between the dining room and den and the living room can become a secluded retreat thanks to another set of these pocket doors. The second floor offers a primary suite with unique built-ins and a gas fireplace, two additional bedrooms (one currently used as an office), and spa-like bathroom with an elevated tub. Two window seats will not only be welcome spaces for reflection but also are sure to be conversation pieces. The third floor offers even more space- another bedroom with a full bathroom and an office where you can position your desk and look out at the breathtaking scenery. You will find the washer/dryer and utility sink at the top of the back stairs. Swimming, fishing, hiking are all nearby. 35 miles to Portland. 40 miles to North Conway. 10 miles to Waterboro.

Nestled halfway down the hill in the quaint village of Limerick, this stately Victorian awaits you. Upon arriving, you are greeted by the roadside stonework and manicured lawn with stunning views of the nearby mountains. Welcome to Hillcrest. This beautifully maintained, 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home seamlessly integrates old with new in the perfect marriage of comfort and functionality. Every room has intention and no space has been wasted. About ten years ago a major renovation took place. New systems were installed along with new windows, some siding and roofing. Fresh paint coated the home inside and out. The bittersweet that once engulfed the front porches was removed and new clean landscape plan was designed by a local professional. The kitchen saw the most dramatic work. New cabinets, countertops and appliances were added. Floors throughout were redone after the old carpets were removed revealing the beautiful rich colors. Soon new stewards of this property will be lucky enough to call this castle their home. Will it be you?
