Property Description
A private oasis, large, beautiful corner lot - a peaceful place to relax, create & feel the joy of life. That's what living here means to the owner, who is a local artist. Come and see what has been created in this 2-bedroom, 1-bath ranch home. One floor lifestyle with ease of living - inside & out. As you walk from the driveway, you'll be welcomed by mature gardens & privacy fencing & a sprinkling of the artist's small steel flowers & archway- the artwork is continued around the rear deck. Enter the family room with plentiful windows to let sunlight flood in & a fireplace to take off the winter chill. Step up into the newly remodelled kitchen with Maple butcherblock countertop, new refrigerator, dishwasher & flooring, plus custom features like a spice rack & shelving. Expanded dining room with built-in storage & closet; sizable adjacent living room with reading nook. The rear hallway leads to the full bath & the 2 bedrooms. Gleaming hardwoods throughout the first floor. A part finished basement adds a lot of storage plus a built-in desk in one room & a large open space that adds options for a family room or guests. What started as a blank canvas has turned into a colorful oasis with plantings all around the house. Creative souls take note - the garage was converted to a studio; a Rinnai heater, extraction fan, & new electrical panel, 220v outlets -insulated, sheet rocked. Whatever your medium, your creative energy will find a home here. And you can simply convert the studio back to have a traditional garage - heated with a workbench! A small garden shed sits by the garage door & can easily be relocated. This much-loved home has had many updates, including a new roof in 2024, several new windows, freshly painted throughout, a new asphalt driveway, re-finished oak floors, new ceiling lights, new electric drop cable & fibre-optic line into the basement office. A true gem close to the heart of Gorham, minutes to shops, restaurants, cafes and town amenities.
