Description

This stunning, expertly renovated home in an in-town, seaside neighborhood is a must see! Sited on a ½-acre lot with an in-ground swimming pool and partial views of Penobscot Bay from nearly every room, this light-filled 3-BR, 3-bath home features a modern open-concept floor plan that combines coastal elegance with energy efficient comfort. The spacious main level offers easy one-floor living and many amenities including a lovely primary BR with a vaulted ceiling, an adjoining full bath, a walk-in closet, and A/C, and a sunlit living area with abundant windows and French doors that open onto a generously sized deck overlooking the 20' x 40' in-ground pool. The custom kitchen is equipped with quartz counter tops and a 9-foot island, premium stainless-steel appliances, three ovens, and a built-in wet bar/microwave station. The main floor also features a dining area, laundry facilities, a gracious front door foyer, a mudroom accessed from the attached 2-car garage, and a wonderful west-facing covered porch. Upstairs you'll find two delightful bedrooms, enormous walk-in closets, and a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub and an over-sized custom tile shower. The basement level offers a large, versatile bonus room with walk-out access to the pool and a fenced-in backyard. The structural and systems upgrades to this remarkable home are extensive. A partial list includes new energy-efficient windows and exterior doors, a new high-efficiency heating and hot water system, new plumbing, new wood siding, upgraded gutters for both the house and garage, and a whole-house electrical update. The in-ground pool has a new salt-based chlorine system and pool cover. Seller will escrow funds at closing to pay for decommissioning of the pool if buyer so desires. Within walking distance of downtown Belfast and just a 2-minute walk to gentle public shore access, this is a luxurious home that feels like your own private oasis.
