71 Old Pool Road, Biddeford, ME 04005
What's special
A rare expression of coastal modernity and private estate living, 71 Old Pool Road has been completely reimagined into one of Biddeford's most distinctive residential offerings. Set on .97 acres behind a circular drive, this stunning 4,192 square-foot retreat pairs the graceful proportions of its 1953 origins with a magazine-worthy renovation that feels timeless and current. From the moment you enter, remarkable design intention is evident. A vaulted foyer with shiplap detail, custom built-ins, and rattan chandeliers introduces a refined coastal palette carried through white oak flooring, expansive windows, curated finishes, and sun-filled living spaces. At the center, a striking quartz kitchen with custom white oak cabinetry, built-in appliances, an oversized island, and a statement range hood opens to dining and living areas anchored by two gas fireplaces. Created for effortless entertaining, three private decks and balconies extend the living spaces outdoors, while the upper-level lounge impresses with vaulted ceilings, custom built-ins, accent lighting, and a wet bar. The primary suite is quietly indulgent, with a custom walk-in closet and spacious full bath. All full bathrooms include heated floors, tiled showers, and double vanities with quartz. The daylight lower level adds a lower level bedroom, full bath, and flex space - ideal for media, fitness, office, guests, or future kitchenette potential. Beyond its visual beauty, the home is exceptionally intelligent, with Homeseer Pro controlling lighting, blinds, locks, alarm, climate, and water leak detection, complemented by UniFi WiFi/camera coverage, smart thermostats, generator-ready infrastructure, an EV charger plug, updated systems, new exterior finishes, porches, landscaping, and an oversized 26x40 garage. Minutes from Biddeford Pool, Fortunes Rocks Beach, marinas, trails, golf, downtown Biddeford, Kennebunkport, and Portland. This is coastal Maine living, completely and elegantly redefined.
