45 Chestnut Street looks original but ‘lives’ the way we do today!

…but the ‘Maine Way’ isn’t always the formal way!

Big and bright, it’s a place to gather..

….so that you can enjoy special times-together!

The 1st floor bath is a treat for the senses…..

….artistic, functional, and with radiant heat in the floor!

…where you can see the natural light that pours through the windows!

The pellet stove is one of 3 heat sources for the home!

Left, at the top of the stairs, is another full bath (with style) and a warm floor!

Opposite that bath is a small room with access to both the hall and the primary bedroom!

Walk in closet? Nursery? Office? Make it whatever you need!

Most folks would use this bedroom as primary but, really, you could take your pick!

Opposite the primary is this lovely room!

The 3rd floor offers more potential. Primary suite, perhaps?

….a smaller room (maybe a future bath?)...

….a new, hot air furnace is the 3rd heating source!

Radon air was checked at the time of the seller’s purchase….

…and there is direct access to the side yard!

If you have too much stuff for THIS shed, maybe you have too much stuff!

45 Chestnut Street offers classic, quiet, elegance with a hint of grandeur!

We hope you will put it on your list to see soon!
