The space
Welcome to our home! We are situated in central Maine, tucked among all of the rivers and mountains. We custom built this house 4 years ago with lots of great amenities. The house has geothermal heat and central air conditioning.
The main floor has the king bed master bedroom with en suite containing a soaking tub and a huge custom walk-in shower with multiple shower heads. Also on the main floor is the large open kitchen, dining area, and living room with 16 ft ceilings, gas fireplace and huge wall of windows to enjoy the nightly sunsets. There is also a mudroom with hooks and cubbies, a half bath, full laundry room with washer & dryer, and an office space.
The bottom floor is a full walkout "basement" with 10 ft ceilings and lots of windows. Two bedrooms, one with a full bed and one with a queen bed are located on the bottom floor, along with a full bathroom, workout gym and a large rec room.
The top floor contains two additional bedrooms with full beds, and a full bathroom, along with a loft space with piano.
There is also a two car garage, and lots of outdoor space with a garden, tree house, and fire pit.
