Property Description

All the best country lifestyle words apply here: serene, pastoral, bucolic. This classic New England Cape is a home with the soul of an antique and the welcoming ease of fresh and thoughtful updates. Beautifully sited, its 1st-floor layout has bright, natural light and offers lovely views throughout the seasons. The highly functional kitchen features cherry butcher-block and soapstone counters, pull-out cabinet shelving for easy storage, updated appliances and walk-in pantry and flows into the open family room with wood stove. A center staircase and formal parlor preserve the traditional Cape layout while the picture window in the dining room frames views of gardens, busy bird feeders and the neighboring blueberry barren. An ell with side entry, powder room/laundry and a newly created office connects directly to the vintage barn. Upstairs, an open banister surrounds the stairway, lending the hallway and landing an airy feel. Three bedrooms, including a large primary with walk-in closet and a sweet separate sitting room, make for restful accommodations. Improvements: In 2005, the house was raised and set on a new poured foundation, creating a large, dry basement with double walk-out doors. All windows were replaced after 2008 and roof shingles in 2017. Outside, expanses of lawn with perennial garden beds, a bluestone patio, stone walls, mowed field, a 10x16 shed and pleasing vistas overlooking the neighboring landscape complete this lovely property. Located just minutes from Union village amenities and a short 25-minute drive to Camden, Rockland and coastal towns and harbors, this delightful home truly checks every box.
