AUGUSTA – Just over a mile from U.S. Route 3 and very handy to intown, here’s an excellent family home on almost four acres, in a private, woodsy setting.
Set on a knoll well back from the road via a long, trees-lined driveway, the 1979-built property comes with the bonus of multi-bay garages that can accommodate four or more vehicles.
The home’s main level is primarily open-concept, beneath a cathedral ceiling, with the kitchen and living rooms flowing together in a front-to-back area extending some 30 feet. Nice features include exposed ceiling beams, extensive paneling, and handsome stone along one wall. The kitchen has newer, stainless-and-black appliances. Doors open out to a sunny side deck measuring 18 feet by 30 feet, and overlooking the lawn.
Down the hall, the spacious full bath has double sinks and a soaking tub, and also houses washer and dryer. Farther down, front and back, are two bedrooms; one has a deep, extra-wide double closet, the other (presently being used as an office) a step-in closet with shelving.
Up the wide, open stairs is a very large, very private, pine-floored bedroom, with two closets, and twin sets of nine built-in drawers, one on each side of the room.
The greater part of the lower level is finished, making the home’s total living-areas square footage a generous 2,426. One side of the lower level is devoted to a family room with brick half-walls and a wood stove on an elevated hearth; the other, to a big crafts room/workshop that has lots of built-ins, and a utility room with plenty of extra space for storage.
The home at 1314 Weeks Mills Road, Augusta, is listed for sale at $219,900 by Julie Chandler of PoGo Realty in Gorham. Annual taxes are $3,766. The home is being shown by appointment.
