New Listing: 45 Beals Avenue, Ellsworth, ME 04605 – $575,000

Perched above Ellsworth on an .74 acre in-town lot, this 2,106 sq. ft. three bedroom, plus study, two bath, restored Garrison retains its lovely historical charm with many added modern updates. With hardwood floors throughout, the spacious, welcoming living room has a newer wood stove insert plus a heat/a/c pump for added comfort and an inviting sun porch. The study has lots of built-ins and a recently added custom bath with shower, which could also be used as an additional bedroom. With just-refinished floors, the large kitchen has granite countertops, a full pantry and over the sink window with beautiful sunset views. Adjoining the dining room with an open counter bar and pellet stove, the space has a great flow. Upstairs are three sizeable bedrooms, the primary with a huge walk-in closet and its own heat/a/c pump, a full bath with a deep tub and an original linen closet built in. In addition to the ample storage in the basement, which is accessed through the kitchen, there is a two-car garage with a storage loft accessed by a full set of stairs. Spring in Maine is not quite ready to unveil the lush green lawn with blooming perennials, regal trees flanking the property, nor the full raised bed vegetable garden and grape arbor in the back – but soon. 45 Beals Avenue is centrally located within walking distance to Main Street’s vibrant restaurants, theatre, groceries and library. The 87-mile Down East Sunrise Trail is literally right outside your door coupled with easy access to Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island and the Schoodic Peninsula. The best of it all year-round.
