874 Sanford Road, Wells, ME 04090
What's special
Nearly everything has been done--just move in and enjoy. This extensively renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch offers a surprising amount of space with an open, easy-flowing layout designed for single-level living. The primary suite is privately positioned on one side of the home with its own full bath, while two additional bedrooms and a second full bath are located on the opposite side. At the heart of the home, the refreshed kitchen features new cabinetry, appliances, and quartz countertops with plenty of room to gather and entertain. The improvements go well beyond what you can see, with new electrical, roof, siding, septic system, deck, bath fixtures, foundation perimeter drain, and six heat pumps. Downstairs, the heated basement offers even more potential--finish it with flooring and drywall for additional living, recreation, office, or flex space. Outside, the large deck and backyard provide a peaceful spot to enjoy the afternoon sun. Commercial zoning adds another layer of flexibility, and the location puts you within easy reach of Wells beaches, shopping, restaurants, and the Maine Turnpike. A generator hookup rounds out a home that has been thoughtfully updated from top to bottom.
