Description

Owned by an experienced builder, this 3BR/2BA antique home on the Back River Road in Boothbay has undergone tremendous renovation. The interior is cheerful, with abundant light, exposed beams, and a pellet stove for heat and ambiance. In addition to updating interior cosmetics, the house has received important and lasting improvements, such as new insulation, wiring, plumbing, structural fortifications, and more. Other satisfying elements include a large barn with attached sheds and second floor storage, a 12' x 24' composite deck with west-facing views of the private rear lawn, a mudroom just off the kitchen, and two full bathrooms.

    "I don't have any dogs so not sure but many neighbors do and dogs seem happy and plenty of areas to walk. no dog parks though. "
  • Dana
    "I've vacationed here several times in the past 35 years and also know a family who lives here. It is quite a safe area with a unique charm. Traffic can get heavy during tourist season, but it's usually fairly manageable. It close enough to some larger cities so you don't feel completely disconnected. "
  • Dana
    "My family vacationed here and stayed in a local house. The area if very family oriented, and seems quite safe. You can walk to a local store and a mall and supermarket are about a 5 minute drive. There are several parks within 20-30 minutes away, and even more within an hours drive. Boothbay Harbor is only about 10-15 minutes away by car. Everyone we met was friendly and more than willing to help out."

    "I am a summer owner with a cottage on Lake Knickerbocker less than a mile from salt water in Boothbay, ME. As a retiree who has spent time in the area each summer for over 50 years and now enjoys over 3 months each summer, I can attest to the attractive vacation atmosphere and small-town life. Because it is a highly desirable and busy summer vacation destination on the Maine coast, dining and summer recreation opportunities are outstanding. In addition, with a large 12-month retiree community, the YMCA and school system activities provide a wide array of fall, winter, and spring arts and athletic opportunities enjoyed by all ages. An active Boothbay Harbor Yacht Club and outstanding semi-private Boothbay Country Club also provide additional activity for the so-inclined. "
