Rare, spacious single level living! Morning coffee on the couch, deer in the backyard, and Gorham Center one mile down the road.
That combination is what the current owners say they love most. A long drive winds back through the trees to this 3 bedroom, 2 bath one level home on a secluded, wooded lot. That kind of privacy usually costs you convenience. Not here. You're minutes from Gorham Center's shops, restaurants and other amenities, close to the USM campus, and about 20 minutes from Portland.
Inside, the main living space opens into a broad octagon, with kitchen, dining, and living flowing together and nothing to interrupt the sightlines. Exposed wood beams follow the pitch of the cathedral ceiling to the peak. Expansive windows wrap the back of the house and frame the woods beyond, so the light changes all day and the wildlife puts on a show. Deer, turkeys, and whatever else wanders through. White brick runs floor to peak around the fireplace and anchors the room.
The kitchen is bright and open to it all, with a walk-in pantry, subway tile, stainless appliances, and a generous granite island that pulls up a stool or two. The layout absorbs a crowd when you want one, and in warm weather it spills out to the deck and backyard. Quiet mornings or a full house, this one does both.
The primary suite offers a walk-in closet and an updated bath, new flooring underfoot and a double vanity in deep blue with gold fixtures. Two more bedrooms, both a good size, share the second full bath in the same wing. A mudroom with a wall of hooks and deep closet storage handles Maine's seasons, and the laundry sits just off the kitchen.
Built as a highly insulated envelope home and well cared for since. The metal roof, exterior paint, heat pumps, well pump, and water heater have all been updated. The attached 2 car garage and unfinished basement add storage.
One level, one mile to town, and a wall of windows between you and the woods.
