Property Description
Have you been searching for a custom modern home in a truly one of a kind location? This may be the one you've been waiting for. Situated in one of Waterville's most desirable neighborhoods, this property sits next to Purnell Wrigley Field, one of only two licensed MLB replica fields in the country, modeled after the Chicago Cubs and attracting visitors from across the nation. Step inside to an open concept kitchen and dining area featuring abundant custom cabinetry and space for gathering. The layout flows into a large living room, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The main level also offers a full bathroom, separate laundry area, and a flexible room ideal for an office or additional dining space. Upstairs you will find a spacious primary suite with a full bathroom and walk-in closet, along with two additional large bedrooms and another full bath. A major bonus is the attached in-law apartment, converted in 2021 from a licensed preschool. It features its own kitchen, dining area, bathroom, living space, and bedroom. Keep it as is, convert back to a business, or integrate it into the main home. The flexibility opens the door for multi-generational living, rental income, or a short term rental opportunity. Set on over 1 acre, a rare in-town offering, the property includes a fenced area, custom fire pit, and plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors. Additional highlights include an attached 2 car garage and a separate heated 2 car garage with office space and storage above. Located in a walkable neighborhood near parks, schools, hospitals, colleges, and downtown. Under 20 minutes to Augusta and about an hour to Portland.
