Description

OPEN HOUSE Saturday 11-12:30. A timeless Kennebunk Colonial with history, character, and exceptional versatility. Step into a piece of Kennebunk history with this wonderful 1799 Colonial, beautifully positioned on an oversized lot with ample space for gardens and outdoor enjoyment. Located in Kennebunk Landing, the property is less than five minutes from historic downtown Kennebunk, area beaches, and the shops, galleries, & restaurants of Kennebunkport's Dock Square. While thoughtful updates and modern amenities bring ease to everyday living, the home retains the distinctive character and architectural details that make an antique New England home so special. The façade is anchored by an imposing pedimented entry and classic, symmetrical proportions, while the original nine-over-six windows speak to its late-18th-century origins. Inside, wide-plank pine floors lend warmth and continuity to the kitchen, dining, and living spaces. The custom chef's kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, while a first-floor primary suite offers the rare convenience of single-level living. An oversized mudroom provides an ideal transition from the outdoors, whether returning from a day at the beach or a snowy New England afternoon. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms, a cozy office nook and full bath, offering comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Perhaps the property's most compelling feature is the extraordinary barn, connected to the main house by a breezeway. With more than two stories of space, it presents an exceptional opportunity to create whatever the next chapter requires--from a woodshop or studio to hobby space, boat storage, or possibly a guest retreat. The possibilities are limited only by imagination. A rare offering that brings together nearly three centuries of history, authentic New England architecture, modern livability, and an enviable coastal location, this special property invites you to slow down, settle in, and make it your own
