    What's special

    Finally, an affordable opportunity to live in the Town of Wells! This home has been lovingly maintained by the same family since it was originally built in 1974. A cape-style home offering 3-4 bedroom/2 baths and 1428 sq. ft. of living space overall. The first floor features an eat-in kitchen/dining area, living room, 2 bedrooms and a full bath. The second floor was expanded in the late 90's to early 2000's and includes two additional bedrooms and full bathroom. It is believed that the home currently has a 3-bedroom septic system, but that should be confirmed by the buyer and/or their representatives. Many updates have occurred in recent years including some interior flooring, replacement windows, vinyl siding, shingles, seamless gutters, front and back doors, decking, railings, bulkhead and more! There is a large detached 3-car garage with an unfinished space above, in addition to a large shed which will need a little love. The home is nestled amongst mature hardwood trees and is privately situated on a spacious lot with just under an acre of land. The yard is expansive on all sides with plenty of room for entertaining, pets and play! Birch Lane is a cul-de-sac that is part of a fantastic neighborhood located adjacent to Ell Pond on the Wells/Sanford line. The property comes with deeded access to a private beach on the pond where you can enjoy the peace and tranquility that this area provides. This location is convenient to the communities of Wells, Sanford and North Berwick and is located about 15-20 minutes to the beaches, restaurants, schools and other area attractions. Open house is scheduled for Saturday, July 17th from 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM. Offers due by Sunday, July 18th at 5:00 PM with a response time of no later that Monday, July 19th at 5:00 PM.
