From each doorstep, 20 Longfellow Avenue features all that Bowdoin College and the Town of Brunswick have to offer. Head out the front door and walk to campus to attend events or continue to downtown Brunswick and all its amenities. Head out the back door to your large vegetable garden, the athletic fields, and a vast trail system that will lead you to the Brunswick Commons and all the way to Maquoit Bay.
20 Longfellow is a classic 1927 American Foursquare that blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Original finishes and wood floors throughout are complemented by a spacious primary suite, family room addition, custom mudroom, home office, attached carport, one-car garage, finished basement space and dedicated firewood storage.
The flexible floor plan is both comfortable and inviting, centered around an open-concept kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and easy flow into the adjoining family room. Anchored by a wood stove and with southern-facing floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the generous backyard, the space is ideal for everyday living. A separate living room and formal dining room provide additional space for hosting and gathering.
Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a private primary suite. The fourth bedroom offers flexibility as a nursery, office, or home gym. Period details such as Douglas fir floors, vintage glass doorknobs, original built-ins, and custom millwork preserve the home's historic charm.
Additional features include a fully outfitted mudroom with built-ins and a custom office workspace with a tiger maple desktop; large partially finished bonus basement space. Outdoors, the generous backyard offers room to garden, entertain, or simply unwind in a peaceful setting.
Properties like this rarely come to market - an exceptional opportunity to own a distinctive, character-filled home in one of Brunswick's most sought-after neighborhoods.
