A charming Cape style home nestled on almost 2 acres looking for a new owner to restore it to its former glory! Welcome to 219 Post Rd in Bowdoin. This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom property is full of potential and conveniently located near I-295.
Inside, the first floor features a cozy eat-in kitchen, a spacious bathroom with laundry, and a bright living area. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms and a second full bath. The home is tied to town water, and the septic system is designed to accommodate a 3-bedroom layout, giving room for future possibilities.
While in need of rehabilitation, the home retains its character, including a detached garage/stable once home to a beloved horse. Set close to the road, the property opens up to grassy areas and meadows behind the house, offering a peaceful retreat.
This property is perfect for those seeking a modest living space with the opportunity to create a personal homestead. It's being sold as-is and may not qualify for all loan types. Located just 10 minutes from Topsham, 20 minutes from Brunswick/Bath, and under 45 minutes to Portland or Augusta. This is a great chance to build something special in a convenient location!
