Location!! Spacious, one-floor living in this retro-styled, solidly built ranch. An informal den (with woodstove) is open to the dining area and kitchen with their backyard views. The living room faces the front of the home. Each of the four bedrooms has a generous-sized closet. The garage with a walk-up attic that spans the entire length of the home. The attached car-port is affectionately referred to as the ''covered terrace''. Enjoy morning coffee under this ''covered terrace'' while listening to the multiple species of songbirds and admiring the fiddle head plantation which transform to gracefully long fern fronds. Wildflowers plus a dozen varieties of lilac trees and shrubs separate the backyard into serene areas of total privacy from the neighbors. Close by are Longfellow's Greenhouse, hiking trails, Shed Pond, a boat launch at Lake Cobbosseecontee, and a local ice cream parlor! Conveniently close to the turnpike, Augusta and multiple shopping centers.
