Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from August 17, 2023
Tucked into a beautiful, established community in Sanford, this home offers the conveniences of city living with the peace and quiet of the suburbs. Built in 1920, you’re going to be impressed with the age-appropriate wood details and the unexpected spaciousness! 1,352 sf of living space includes 3 bedrooms on the second story and a full bath. The first floor has an open dining/living area, well appointed kitchen, pantry (bonus!) and our favorite... the 3 season sun-porch. The dry basement has additional space that can be finished, as well as plenty of storage. Entertain guests on these breezy summer evenings on your deck, play in the yard with your dog, and come winter, park in the garage where you don’t have to worry about sweeping off your car! Walkable to downtown, and easy access to shopping and commuter routes, you’re going to love life on Shawmut Avenue. Showings begin at the Friday Open House, June 9th, from 4:30-6pm. See you there!
