Set on over two private acres in Scarborough, this classic Colonial offers a peaceful setting where nature and everyday living come together with ease. Meticulously maintained by its original owners, the property reflects years of thoughtful care both inside and out. A large front yard creates a welcoming first impression, while the surrounding wooded landscape offers privacy, seasonal beauty, and frequent visits from local wildlife. Inside, warm and comfortable living spaces invite you to slow down and settle in. The living room is anchored by a pellet stove, adding both charm and cozy warmth during Maine's colder months. The home's traditional Colonial layout offers a timeless flow, complemented by 1.5 bathrooms and flexible spaces suited for everyday living, entertaining, or working from home. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with both a back deck and patio providing space to relax, dine, or enjoy the quiet natural surroundings. Beyond the attached 2-car garage, the property also includes an additional 2-car garage, carport, and shed--offering exceptional versatility for storage, hobbies, outdoor equipment, or recreational vehicles. This property offers the balance of rural privacy while remaining convenient to nearby beaches, preserves, trails, local amenities, and easy access to Portland and surrounding communities. A rare opportunity to enjoy classic Maine living with space, privacy, and room to grow.
