Nestled on a picturesque hillside in downtown Orono, this beautifully landscaped 2-bedroom, 2-bath New Englander home offers both comfort and versatility. Spanning over 1,200 sq. ft., the inviting living room features a cozy fireplace and a dining area, perfect for gatherings. The updated kitchen boasts a stylish center bar with granite and a convenient pass-through, making entertaining a breeze. A spacious first-floor addition, previously a hair salon, has been thoughtfully converted into a flexible space with a Murphy bed (included) and a separate office—ideal for an in-law suite or a home-based business. Upstairs, a large bedroom with cathedral ceiling offers a comfortable seating area and ample closet space complements a neighboring tiled full bath. Enjoy energy efficiency with two new heat pumps, and take advantage of the basement's bay door for easy access to storage for all your outdoor gear. Additional storage is provided by a shed next to the paved driveway and carport. Location is key—this home is just a short walk from local attractions and mere minutes from the University of Maine, I-95, and Bangor. Experience the charm and convenience of this delightful property today!
