About this House

OPEN HOUSE, SATURDAY, AUGUST 15TH FROM 2:00-3:30PM. Have you been waiting for an opportunity to live in a solidly built home that has stood the test of time right on the Rachel Carson Wildlife Refuge with private marsh views out your back yard window & only a couple minutes stroll to the beach? Your wait is over! This home is like walking into a time capsule where quality craftsmanship inside of a home meant something BUT it is in need of a facelift so a dream and vision will be needed. The home is being sold in its as is as seen condition but allows you an opportunity to bring your own ideas and make it your own. The home currently is a 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home with a large family room, living room, dining room, kitchen, and sewing room/office on the first floor and there is a lower level of the home where there is another kitchen, full bathroom, and 2 additional rooms to use as you desire. The home offers a very private backyard with a large shed (that needs love for sure) abutting Rachel Carson. The home is elevated giving it great curb appeal and there is a 2 car garage in the home. Come take a peek at this property, the location can't be beat and the views could be endless!
We estimate this home will sell faster than 84% nearby.

    "Our neighborhood is lovely and very quiet. We appreciate that we know most of our neighbors and we look out for each other. It is also nice being able to feel like you are living in the woods while still being in a neighborhood. "
  • Emma W.
    "It’s not too far from everything. Other places with stores or activities are at most, 40 minutes away. Drawbacks are being in a tourism town."
  • Betty Marineau
    "I raised my children in this neighborhood and they have lifelong friends because of it. There is something to be said for truly knowing your neighbors. They are there for you in good times and in bad."
  • Ed v.
    "I've lived in this area for 17 years. people are friendly and considerate. the area has been developing rapidly and with the influx of new residents things are changing."
  • Cswhit76
    "There is a terrific farmers market . We also do a lot of barbecuing in the summer or go to the beach and have a day long picnic."
  • Paul R.
    "Wells is an active and friendly community located on the ocean, a great place to raise a family and/or retire. "
  • Zachary D. S.
    "I have vacationed here dozens of times as a kid and adult. I have rented homes here and I love it. Lots to do in the summer/fall...winter gets a little nasty with not much to do. "
  • Janis
    " Safe area. Beautiful beach great for swimming, walking, surfing. Restaurants closed by nine pm in many cases. Dogs are not allowed on beach during the day in the Summer leaving residents with only busy streets to walk their dogs. Traffic heavy during summer months with extra police presence. However, the extra police force is often seen standing around talking to one another or riding bikes while traffic is backed up in the center. Police will fine visitors for shooting off fireworks on July 4 even if shot over the ocean at low tide. Residents have also been stopped when walking down the street with a soda in their hand and asked what they were drinking.. It also appears many year round residents resent those who come to the beach in the Summer despite the monetary benefit they bring to the town. Beach is not cleared of seaweed as well as Ogunquit or Moody. Seaweed along with plastic and paper trash is dragged to waters edge at low tide only to be returned to beach with the high tide. (Job security for those operating machinery.) Town only picks up large debris from beach. Trash is left for residents to pick up. Trash cans are not available along public ways year round. Only in summer. Sand is often left on cement stairs in center which can be hazardous to people of all ages. Beach could be better taken care of. Home trash pick up is not provided by the town."
