Escape to Maine's Beauty near the river! This 1-2 bedroom ranch-style retreat, perfect for seasonal living enthusiasts seeking proximity to water access. Nestled just a stone's throw away from the tranquil Piscataquis River, this cozy abode offers the quintessential Maine lifestyle without the premium price tag of waterfront property. Step inside to discover a delightful surprise - recently unearthed hardwood flooring beneath the carpets, awaiting your personal touch with refinishing. The open living room provides a warm and inviting space, ideal for relaxing after a day spent exploring the picturesque surroundings. Boasting a functional layout, the home features a full bathroom conveniently situated near the bedroom and office/second bedroom - offering flexibility for potential modifications. For those desiring separate access to the bathroom without disturbing the second bedroom, envision a simple reconfiguration: relocate the bathroom sink, add a door in the living room, and install entry doors for each room, creating a private sanctuary. The possibilities continue downstairs, where a full unfinished basement and an oversized one-car garage await your creative vision. Consider transforming a portion of the garage into additional living space, expanding the potential of this charming retreat. Convenience meets tranquility with the property's prime location, a mere minute from the public boat access point for the Piscataquis River. Whether you're an avid angler, water sports enthusiast, or simply seeking moments of serenity by the water's edge, this home offers the perfect opportunity to live amidst Maine's natural splendor. Embrace the allure of seasonal or full time living in Maine and immerse yourself in the unparalleled beauty it has to offer. Welcome home to Maine - where every day feels like a vacation. Seller offering concession to the buyer at closing for flooring/bathroom-bedroom changes to create the 2nd bedroom. Being Sold AS IS, WHERE IS
