6 Elliot LaneBowdoinham, ME 04008Sale Price: $550,000

Beautiful contemporary Cape with impressive improvements located in West Branch Woods: a neighborhood of fine homes and with shared access to the West Branch of the Cathance River. The layout of the original home's open concept K/DR/LR floor plan dovetails seamlessly with an exquisite great room addition, resulting in first floor living space that is most flexible, and functional. Discerning buyers will appreciate the design and fine craftsmanship of the addition's stunning stone fireplace; cathedral ceilings; exposed beams; slate floors; and wainscoting. An additional room on the first floor currently serves as a den/office, but could serve as a first-floor bedroom, if needed. There are three bedrooms on the second floor. The backyard is positively stunning! Here, you will enjoy private outdoor livings spaces surrounded by mature perennial beds, including a covered porch with grand columns; screened gazebo; and a two-tiered deck-one level for grilling, and another level with built-in benches and room for al fresco dining. Evergreens provide natural screening in the front yard, which is large and level for gardening or games. Custom tile work in both full bathrooms. First floor laundry. Full basement and attached 2-car garage. Enjoy the benefits of living in a neighborhood on a quiet cul-de-sac just one mile north of the Village. Bowdoinham is a convivial and thriving community on Merrymeeting Bay with a public boat landing; band stand/park with free weekly concerts during the summer months; Community Center; Art Center; wonderful town library; and future waterfront park. Live here and enjoy the best of both worlds: rural Maine living, and a location that is 40 minutes to Portland; 15 minutes to Brunswick; and 25 minutes to Augusta and/or L/A. Very special.
