Whether you're looking to downsize, looking for your starter home, or just looking for the perfect cozy spot, 261 Merrill is here for you to start your next chapter. Full of storybook charm, this house makes a perfect home base in all seasons. Curl up by the woodstove and watch the snow fall during the winter, tend to your gardens and feast on as many wild blackberries as you can pick during the spring and summer, and watch the leaves change during the autumn while sipping your coffee on the oversized deck. As the second to last house on a quiet dead end street, you have the convenience of being close to everything (less than an hour to Portland or Brunswick, and only... 30 minutes to Augusta) but set back enough that you don't need to think about any in-town noise. Being on over an acre gives you room to spread out, and the surrounding undeveloped land makes it feel even more spacious. Perfect spot to do some homesteading! Large garage building will allow one small car or an immense amount of storage. Your neighbors are nearby if you need them, but far away enough that you don't need to see a soul for days if you don't want to! All the benefits of country living while still being near the city (just ten minutes to Forage café!). Inside, the rustic beams and bright skylights make this home feel spacious but warm and comfy at the same time. The bedroom on the first floor features a closet with a stackable washer/dryer to make laundry day a breeze. The bathroom features a shower/tub and a soaring ceiling with a skylight to let the sun shine in during any season. The kitchen is bright and well appointed with a dishwasher, a gas range, and newer fridge. Upstairs, you'll find a sun drenched full height loft usable as a second bedroom (fits a queen bed!), an art room, a living space, or whatever your heart desires. Next to the loft is a walk-in closet so all your storage needs are satisfied, even with a smaller home! Come see what life at 261 Merrill could be like for you
