Open the doors of opportunity into a beautiful historic home just a stone's throw away from China Lake! Drink your morning coffee on the deck while watching the sun rise over the water. Spend an afternoon cutting your own beautiful bouquets from your flower garden and cool off on the swing under the shade of the mature maple trees. A daily visit to Memorial Park nearby means you can observe the different migrations of wildlife up close. From ice fishing beside the bald eagles, seeing the run of the alewives in springtime, to boating and fishing with the loons at sunset in summer, every season has something special to experience. This home has rich character and historic charm in every corner, with original woodwork and hardware, stained glass window panes and exposed beams in the kitchen, entryway and beyond. Built-in cabinets, a walk-in pantry off the kitchen, four original fireplaces and a first floor library are just some of the home's unique features. With the convenience of true one-level living as an easy option, plus three extra bedrooms and a half bathroom upstairs, there's plenty of space to spread out. Storing your boat, kayaks, fishing gear, workshop tools, art supplies or whatever else brings you joy is made simple with the oversized two car garage and ample storage loft above. The East Vassalboro library, post office, town hall, grange and Historical Society Museum (next door!) are close by if you are looking for community involvement. Area amenities like shopping, golf, outdoor recreation, nature trails and more are conveniently accessible, as is a commute to Waterville (15 minutes) or Augusta (20 minutes). Enjoy the beautiful way this home has preserved and blended the past with the present.
