Property Description
The Joshua Merrill home circa 1805, also known as the old Toll Keeper's House is proudly offered for the first time in 40+ years. Lovingly restored and updated, this 3/4 bedroom home truly celebrates its antiquity and waterfront location with 9 over 12 windows, original Indian shutters, period Rumford fireplaces and extensive perennial gardens. Local historians have declared it the best restoration in Falmouth. The fern green kitchen features gleaming quartzite counters, custom cabinetry, dedicated butcher block for baking bread, a wine cooler and top-of-the-line appliances. Just steps away is the great room with a generous area for dining and for gathering with unlimited views of the Presumpscot River to the west. There is a first floor bedroom option with a full bath, a home office, dedicated laundry, mudroom/pantry, and a waterside keeping room with a magnificent brick hearth overlooking a classic stone patio. The second floor offers three more bedrooms and a full bath. Everything is freshly painted and updated. Situated on one of only four Audubon ''Flyways'' this site also features a front row seat every spring and fall as hundreds of bird species migrate. Located in the heart of ''The Flats'', this location cannot be beat for convenience to downtown Portland, the hospitals and the International Jetport. Truly one of the prettiest homes on the coast of Maine, this antique classic is full of charm, thoughtful features and modern conveniences. Call for your private showing today. Square footage, waterfront and acreage are estimated. Buyer encouraged to verify.
