The spacious combination high-end kitchen (south facing) and dining room has beautiful cherry cabinets and a Viking gas stove, roomy pantry, and granite countertops. French doors lead to a rustic patio perfect for entertaining. There is a spacious master bedroom with a full bathroom and two walk-in closets. Two additional bedrooms, another full second floor bathroom, and a downstairs living room and office along with half-bath allow for plenty of room for you and your guests. The house and barn are perched on a small hill across from the Saco River with full sun, except for two mature maple trees which provide the house with ample summer shade.

Three mature peach trees and one pear tree, three grape varieties, and perennial asparagus patches are also established and thriving along with many perennial flowers (4 mature lilac bushes, hostas, roses, columbines, daffodils, comfrey, tulips, crocuses, bee balms). Close to Portland, the turnpike, and beautiful Biddeford Pool (featuring town beach access), this place is a homestead dream!
