Property Description

Sunlit, mid-century modern Freeport home nestled on a rare 2.5-acre parcel less than a mile from downtown. Year-round, living room water views over the Harraseeket River estuary and its own frontage on Frost Gully Brook.
This storybook, one floor living home features maple floors, six-panel wood doors & original kitchen cabinets with clean, modern updates. A spacious brick hearth adorned with handmade sconces sits at the center of the home. Spend lazy afternoons relaxing by the crackling fireplace.
Downstairs bedroom offers a private guest space with Saltillo-like tile floor & brickwork & direct access to carport. Metal roof and hard-wired automatic generator ensure security. Recent system upgrades include Hybrid H/W heater, water softener, new kitchen backsplash, large refrigerator and glass cooktop (see add'l Improvements list).
Established rhododendron, azalea, lilac and forsythia add color in springtime. Kitchen garden with herbs and tomatoes and a bank of wild raspberries & blackberries. Established elderberries & apples. Available friendly chickens, coop & run: enjoy fresh eggs and the company of a foraging, feathered flock. Wander your own woodsy perimeter trail or explore nearby trails at Mast Landing Audubon Sanctuary & Pettengill Farm. Bow St. Market & Farmer's Market, just up the road, sell fresh bread & local produce.
Watch the ebb and flow of estuary tides, vibrant autumns, and fiery winter sunsets reflected over the marsh from an 8-foot bay window. Enjoy bird-watching in the estuary while paddling the included sea kayak to Casco Bay. Sit in your Adirondack by the brook, fish or listen to the gentle waterfall. Entertain or work from home on the sunny deck off the kitchen's sliding glass door.
Freeport summer outdoor concerts & events, restaurants, live music and the Amtrak Downeaster train are all downtown. 20-minute drive to Portland and the airport. A perfect balance of nature with easy access to downtown living.
