Did I mention the deck that runs the length of the house? It's like having another room for part of the year!
The kitchen...
See the little space between the cabinets? As you can see, a wine bottle fits perfectly, as do wine glasses or cook books or what have you...
You can see my desk in the corner (I moved the ugly chair out of the way), and my cool map of the world...
You can see how big the deck is, with plenty of room to hang out.
Located on a quiet dead end road just outside of town, the location honestly can't be beat. You can walk to town and all the events - like the awesome Pumpkinfest and fourth of July fireworks - and if you're lazy, you can just walk to the top of the hill and see the fireworks set off over the river from there. There are tons of paths in the woods to walk, tennis courts next door open to the public (you can just walk over the stone wall to them if you're a player), and the highway is maybe two minutes away. I'm about an hour from Portland.
This would be a great starter home for anyone (Zillow estimates the mortgage to be $384/mo) or an investment if you wanted to rent it out for the summer and maybe sneak in a week or two for yourself in Vacationland. Oh, and did I mention the little pond? You can't see it through the trees this time of year but it's right next door and it is a wildlife haven for birds and frogs and peepers. I've seen Kingfishers, Great Blue Herons, and even a North American Bittern (very secretive birds), plus the usual song sparrows, red-winged blackbirds (my fave) and the ever charming goldfinches.
Asking price is $109,000.

That is a cool little house. Really like the deck.
ReplyDeleteThe deck is awesome. Plenty of room to cook out and gather to eat :)
ReplyDeleteLove that deck! I really wish I could move back to Maine.
ReplyDeleteWell, I envy you in the winter, you envy me in the summer - and if you want to downsize...
DeleteIt looks like a great place. I love that bedroom.
ReplyDeleteThe bedroom is the whole second floor, which is nice.
DeleteMarcy, It is a lovely house, and I can read in your words how sad you are to leave it, especially because of its location. But your new Victorian house is amazing too, based on the pictures your sister has posted on FB. Looking forward to seeing more!
ReplyDeleteI will be sad to leave my awesome little house, but oh boy is my new house reeaally nice.
DeleteIt's an adorable home with a great patio and location. Good price, too! I wish you lots of luck finding the right buyer, so you can move on to your new adventure.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the luck, I could use some!
DeleteGood Luck with the sale! I like the way the house looks inside, unique and cozy.
ReplyDeleteThank you! It is very cozy and wicked cheap to heat.
DeleteLovely! Bet it goes fast!
ReplyDeleteI hope so!
DeleteGet me a job nearby and I'll buy that house in a second. The interior colours are AMAZING.
ReplyDeleteI chose the colors myself - and painted! The red is a bit bold, but it makes the living area feel very warm and I love my Mexican yellow kitchen!
DeleteGood luck. Love that deck. And the pond would be a big drawcard for me.
ReplyDeleteThe deck rocks, and the pond...oh, the pond, how I will miss thee and thy birds.
DeleteWow! It looks like such a cute little house on beautiful property.
ReplyDeleteIt is a sweet home for sure.
DeleteGreat place. I hope it sells easily.
ReplyDeleteMe too!
DeleteI've lived in big houses and now in a small house. Small is better. My house is exactly the right size for Franklin, Penelope, and me. I also have a large deck and hope to turn it into a true Florida room eventually. I think a sweet little house such as yours would sell easily.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I sure hope it does!
DeleteI could see that being a great little vacation house. We lived in a place almost that small while in NYC. With 5 of us. Whew! Let me just say, I like my space now.
ReplyDeleteIt's perfect for one or two people, possibly more short term, but 5 would be a few too many!
ReplyDeleteWow, you're making BIG changes in your life (yes, sorry, getting caught up after a long absence). Really hope the house sells fast, even though I know you'll miss that location.
ReplyDeleteYes, big changes. I hope the house sells quickly, too, and hopefully to someone who'll enjoy it.
Deletewhat's up, woman?
ReplyDeleteput that beauty on wheels and it would be a tiny mansion =) millenials will be banging down your door!
good luck and hope things work out for you!
Thank you!
DeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteSo do I :)
DeleteLove the space. Here's to a quick sale.
ReplyDeleteAttractive house for buying. Thanks for the sharing.
