Gorgeous, flawless, historic home is refreshed and ready to serve modern needs. Completely renovated, it blends bright, contemporary updates with the exposed beams, golden floors, and fireplaces of yesteryear. With new heat, updated electric, plumbing, and insulation, just move in and enjoy the stunning renovations. Consider the large kitchen, for starters: Snowy quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and new stainless appliances line two walls, leaving plenty of room for an island and a breakfast table. Underfoot you'll find easy care tile for this hard-working part of the house. At the front of the home, two handsome rooms flank the formal entry. In the large dining room the original beams are revealed, evoking a candlelight era. Across the hall an equally spacious living room features an original fireplace. The first floor also offers a half bath, and a bright bonus room with a private entry, ideal for home office, studio, playroom. Ascend the grand front staircase to the second floor where the primary suite of your dreams awaits. The bedroom has its own fireplace (not currently open). Then consider the walk-in closet--which actually contains its own closet, because this is a quirky old house, after all! And then step into one of the larger en suite baths you'll ever see. Enjoy your choice of a tiled walk-in shower, or a deep soaking tub. There's always plenty of elbow room at this stone-topped double vanity. Here you'll find your laundry center as well. Two more bedrooms, with wide-plank floors and some revealed timbers, share a second full bath on this level. Custom window shades throughout; and all furnishings may convey with the right offer! This antique treasure sits on a large lot with mature fruit trees and a stream. It's just a couple of minutes away from the vibrant and historic downtown of Hallowell, but also ten minutes from the Interstate highway. Recent sale history reflects unexpected life events for the last two owners. OPEN HOUSE 5/28, 12-2
