Down a country lane in one of our best-kept-secret small towns, you'll discover this custom post & beam ready to embrace you with its warmth and distinct sense of home. With exposed beams, classic features and the glow of warm wood, the open floor plan circulates around a brick chimney, anchoring the house and accommodating a central wood stove. Two bedrooms and a large full bath on the second floor are just right. French doors open to a breezy deck off the living room, an ideal spot to unwind while looking out over a large sunny fenced lawn rimmed by nature – perfect for play or gardening. The large dry walk-out basement offers additional possibilities. A nicely-crafted shed with windows lies within the fence yard, well-suited for gardening, wood storage or perhaps an upscale coop for feathered friends. The detached 2-car garage rounds out the homestead. Nestled in the town of Washington, the excellent library and remarkable General Store are just a short drive, as are Washington and Crystal Ponds for lakeside fun and the Medomak Retreat Center offering yoga, astronomy and other enticing programs. With so many delightful destinations just 30+/- minutes away (quintessential villages such as Camden, Belfast, Damarsicotta, the harbors, the peninsulas, Augusta) this is a perfect jumping-off spot to explore the mid-coast or commute to the capital. A home with a serene soul offering an idyllic country lifestyle and a tranquil safe haven...this offers the magic you've been searching for.
