Description

Located in the heart of Berwick, just a short 7 minute walk to Corner Point Brewery, the town hall, new butcher shop and all of the up and coming shops being developed downtown! This quaint and cozy 1890's historical cape has been impeccably and lovingly maintained within the same family for 60+ years! Major updates that have been completed include new windows, heating system, vinyl siding, whole house generator, garage door opener, newer oil tank, and updated electrical panel. Some additional features include a partially fenced in yard, large back deck, town water and sewer. This home could be set up as a ranch with the 2 bonus rooms on the main floor as bedrooms or used as flex space as a den or dining room. Move-in ready but essentially waiting for you to put your personal touch on the cosmetic updates if wanted!

    "It's a nice loop so walking your dog on a quiet road is nice and easy to do. it is hard though because the front yards of people's homes are the green space available which means your dog will likely pee on some else's yard or plants on the walk. "

    "where I live is a very busy street and the cars go way to fast. I know a woman who was killed on my street walking her dog. there are so many places to go to walk your dog but the convenience of stepping right outside and going isnt always the safest option."

    "I've lived in Berwick for 28 yrs and know this neighborhood which is in my opinion still one of the nicest, well kept rural neighborhoods in Berwick. You feel like your deep in the country, well away from the City traffic and problems, yet your only 10-15 minutes away from any type of shopping needs you have and just 17 miles to Portsmouth, NH. You can be at the York, Wells or Ogunquit beaches in under 30 minutes. If your thing is the Mountains, your just 45 minutes to just over an hour to the White Mountains of NH. You are 45 minutes to Portland Maine, just over an hour to Boston Mass and just minutes to some of the finest dining anywhere. The town of Berwick has one of the Oldest Summer Theaters in the Country, the Hackmatack Playhouse....! The school system is second to none, the town services are excellent, the crime rate is almost non existent when it comes to home invasions or personal attacks. I know this neighborhood has many kids and safe areas to play. I have been in this particular home and would be my first choice to raise a family if I had one. The house is absolutely incredible, the owner very knowledgeable about the home and I learned it was designed to be built in 3 phases, the first built in 1986, 2nd 1995 and the 3rd has yet to be completed. What strikes me as incredible is you could NOT buy a piece of property in a neighborhood like this and build a home like this for the price they are asking.......!!"
