JEFFERSON – Driving down the winding lane and approaching this 2006 home that’s nicely secluded on 9.24 acres, you might assume that it’s a handsome, contemporary single-level of about average size.
Only when you take a look from the back do you begin to realize how spacious this custom home is – 3,127 square feet on two levels. And only when there’s no snow cover can you appreciate how lush and green the property is – see the accompanying photograph for an illustration of its rolling lawns and garden beds, hardscaping and even a spring-fed pond, with a deck overlooking all.
And as the solar panel in the photo suggests, the home is “green” – highly energy-efficient – in construction, too.
Even on a gray winter day, the interior is bright, thanks to well-chosen wall colors – soft white and greys and light blues.
Off the mudroom and a powder room/laundry, the main living area is open-concept. The cathedral-ceiling living room features a stone, gas fireplace flanked by built-ins; the charming, tiled dining room has a trio of arched windows in its bay, and accesses the screened porch. Behind a granite dining bar with columns, the lovely kitchen’s stainless appliances include a five-burner gas range.
The second bedroom is good-sized, and also makes a great office; the master suite is private and spacious, its bath providing both a jet tub and a beautifully tiled, oversized walk-in shower enclosure.
The lower level has a central, walkout/daylight great room/multipurpose room of about 400 square feet; a corner bedroom with a full bath attached, a bonus room, and a separate room for utilities.
In addition to the attached, oversized one-vehicle garage, there’s a 1,200-square foot heated garage/workshop.
Please note that the property is very handy to the boat launch, beach and state park at Damariscotta Lake, of which it has views; and is an approximately equal, 30-minute commute to Augusta and Rockland.
The home at 30 Paradise Lane, Jefferson, is listed for sale at $299,999 by Wayne Farrin of Farrin Properties in Damariscotta. For more information or to arrange a viewing, please call, text or e-mail Wayne at 207-592-9057 or at WayneFarrin@FarrinProperties.com.
