    What's special

    Welcome hoME to this charming Colonial nestled in the heart of Bangor. A most convenient location, close to shopping, restaurants, and quick access to I-95 for easy commuting! Enjoy walking or biking? Take a brief stroll to the next block to enjoy all that Broadway Park has to offer! Did you know? Essex Street begins at State Street in Bangor and ends at Pushaw Lake, so whichever way you turn, you can literally head straight to downtown or up to the water for some fun in the sun! Kick off your shoes in the delightful enclosed 3-season porch; the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind with a good book. Step through the front door and straight into the open kitchen where you'll find ample cabinet storage and generous space for an eat-in dining experience. To the left of the kitchen is the first full bath, which was recently updated from a half bath to full bath, and the first of three bedrooms, currently utilized as a workout space. Beyond the kitchen, to the right of the entrance, is the cozy living room followed by the primary bedroom with both a standard closet and a very pleasing walk-in closet! Upstairs, you'll find two more bedrooms, each offering a peaceful retreat at the end of the day; one providing direct access to the 'roof-top' deck with stairs to the backyard. The large living space, in between these two bedrooms, is currently utilized as a home office, but certainly offers other possibilities. The second full bath, also recently updated, is conveniently located off this centralized room! Outside, the fenced-in backyard provides for cozy nights of entertainment for both humans and furry friends! Compete with a detached two-car garage offering plenty of space for parking and storage. Be sure to ask us for the list of improvements!
