Description

On a gentle bend of the Saco River, where the water widens and the pace of life slows, this timeless Cape offers a rare combination of privacy, beauty, and thoughtful design. Impeccably cared for by its original owner and recently updated and expanded, the home has evolved into a serene haven, one that feels both grounded in craftsmanship and elevated for modern living. Nearly 6 acres unfold around the property, with an expansive lawn that rolls gracefully to the tidal waterfront. The setting is peaceful and ever changing, with panoramic river views, protected natural surroundings, and unforgettable sunsets that can be enjoyed from nearly every room. Inside, the home balances warmth and openness with a layout designed for both gathering and quiet enjoyment. A stunning sitting room invites you to linger and take in the view, while multiple living and dining spaces offer flexibility for entertaining or everyday living. The expanded primary suite is oriented to capture the beauty of the river, and features a luxurious bath and an exceptional walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms offer space for family and guests. The large first floor office and bonus mudroom provide future opportunities for single-level living. The property reflects a commitment to quality and longevity. Exterior improvements include durable Hardie Board siding and Azek trim, while updated heating and cooling systems, featuring both mini-splits and ducted heat pumps, ensure year round efficiency and comfort. The location offers remarkable convenience, minutes in either direction from beautiful beaches and the shops, restaurants, and charm of downtown Saco. Located within the Thornton Academy district, the property combines comfort and practicality in equal measure. Quietly placed within its surroundings, meticulously cared for, and deeply connected to the landscape, this is a home that invites you to slow down, settle in, and stay awhile.
