If you've ever dreamed of bringing a home with history back to life, this one is full of possibilities. Built around 1900, this Brunswick home pairs original character with a location that's hard to beat, steps from Bowdoin College and an easy walk to Maine Street. With over 2,000 square feet and four bedrooms, there's room to think big. Several key pieces are already in place so you can move right in. The updated kitchen features granite countertops and new appliances. A heat pump provides efficient heating and cooling, and a wood stove and gas stove add warmth and ambiance. Built-ins and original details give you plenty to work with. A first-floor bedroom doubles as a home office, and first-floor laundry lets you live comfortably on the main level while you transform the second floor to match your vision. That's where the fun begins. Upstairs, three bedrooms include a spacious primary bedroom with its own door to a private deck overlooking the gardens, and the bedroom's subfloor is ready for finishing. The second-floor half-bathroom works today, with part of the space gutted and plumbing in place for a shower. The first-floor bathroom is fully functional and ready for your updates, and several rooms will welcome fresh paint and new or refinished flooring. A little garden magic awaits outside. The large, private backyard feels like a world of its own. A pond with a small waterfall curves past the stone patio and fire pit, and a footbridge crosses the water to complete the storybook scene. A Japanese maple and a cypress tree give you a first glimpse of the unique plantings tucked throughout the grounds, with more surprises waiting to unfold as the garden wakes up in spring. Picture a slow morning coffee by the water, a quiet summer afternoon among the flowers, or friends gathered around the fire on an autumn night. If you're the kind of person who walks in and immediately starts sketching plans, come see what's possible! The Sellers are offering the home as-is.
