    What's special

    River viewsFour-bedroom two-bath homePerennial bedsUpdated kitchenNewly renovated dining roomGravel drivewayStone edging
    Set on a well landscaped lot with views towards the Cathance River, this thoughtfully updated four-bedroom, two-bath home blends classic New England character with modern finishes. A major renovation in 2020 was continued by the current owner and includes all new siding on the main home, giving the house a fresh, cohesive look. The layout offers four bedrooms and a full bath on each level-practical for family living, guests, or a home office. The interior has a wonderful flow with the layout offering an updated kitchen, newly renovated dining room and a large living room which offers plenty of space. The second floor offers an option to have an ADU if you desire with its own electrical meter, second kitchen, and a second laundry connection. An oversized two car garage with storage above gives you options for a workshop or your future business ideas. Outside, perennial beds, stone edging, and a gravel driveway frame a yard that feels established and easy to enjoy. The location is one of the property's strongest features: you are close to the town landing at Mailly Waterfront Park, with its picnic area, gazebo, public restrooms, and a boat launch on the Cathance River. A farmers market runs there on Saturdays in season, so local produce, bread, and crafts are a short trip away. The home will also have access to the emerging Merrymeeting Trail, the planned multi-use rail-trail linking Bowdoinham with Topsham, Richmond, and Gardiner. Combined with river views and walkable proximity to the village waterfront, 59 River Road offers a renovated house in a small Maine town that still feels connected to the water and the community.
