Originally dating to 1797, this remarkable home has now been thoughtfully completed with extensive renovations and a full restoration that preserves its extraordinary craftsmanship while delivering the style and functionality today's buyers desire. Inside, period details including the impressive six-flue central chimney, exposed beams, built-ins, and wide pine character blend effortlessly with updated systems and refined finishes throughout. The newly completed kitchen and dining area offer a fresh, inviting atmosphere designed for gathering, featuring modern appointments and views overlooking the newly landscaped and private backyard setting. Perfectly positioned in the heart of the Boothbay Peninsula, the property places the new owner within close reach of the very best Midcoast Maine has to offer.
