Property Description
OPPORTUNITY in the heart of ORONO village and Commercial Zoning for maximum flexibility. Amazing single family home that was originally a multi-family, up/down duplex. Dedicated driveway for each unit. It still is used as a duplex without the center wall, which separated the sides. Bring your vision to this expansive 4,104 sq. ft. property, ideally situated in the heart of it all. Minutes from the University of Maine flagship campus. With versatile layouts, this property is well-suited for a range of uses-maximize income as a student rental, a business venture, or keep it as a massive single-family residence, you have options. Storage and functionality are standout features. A large multi-story barn, with a workshop area, and a spacious attic provide endless options for expansion, hobbies, or additional finished living area. The home sits on a .33-acre lot in one of Orono's most prime locations. Residents and tenants will enjoy the ability to walk straight through to municipal offices, restaurants, pubs, Pat's Pizza, shops, running trails along the river, and all that downtown Orono has to offer. The property does need renovation and TLC, but that means it's truly a blank slate with enormous potential. Opportunities in this location are rare-don't miss your chance to re-imagine the property, and create something special in one of Orono's most desirable settings.
